Low voltage cut out
The battery pack used on this tool is fitted with a low voltage
cut out feature within the circuitry.
The low voltage cut out feature operates when the voltage
drops below a pre-set value. This feature automatically
stops the drill from operating (similar to the overload
protection). When this condition occurs you will need to
either insert another battery into the drill or recharge the
existing battery.
The low voltage cut out feature has been added to
maximise the tool's life. When this occurs, recharge the
battery pack by following the battery charging section in
this manual.
Note:
Attempting to restart the tool without either recharging
the battery or installing another battery (with charge) will
lead to the drill restarting and then stopping again after only
a few seconds of operation.

the accessories in the original packaging. In this way
you will always have all the information and parts ready
to hand.

is a danger of explosion! Please hand in non-working
or used batteries, or tools with built-in batteries, to the
environmentally-safe disposal unit at a municipal waste-
