or extreme temperatures. In case of contact with battery acid wash
it off immediately with soap and water. In case of eye contact rinse
thoroughly for at least 10 minutes and immediately seek medical
attention.
BATTERY PACK PROTECTION
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling and short circuit situa-
tions that cause high current draw, the tool will vibrate for about 5
XII
seconds, the fuel gauge will flash,and then the tool will turn OFF.
To reset, release the trigger. Under extreme circumstances, the
internal temperature of the battery pack could raise too much. If
this happens, the fuel gauge will flash until the battery pack cooled
down. After the lights go off, the work may continue.
Place the battery on the charger to charge and reset it.
