ambient temperature, the indication may differ slightly

Tool / battery protection system
The machine is equipped with a battery protection
system. This system automatically cuts off power to the
motor to extend battery life.
The machine will automatically stop during operation if
the machine and/or battery are placed under one of the
following conditions:
Overloaded:
The tool is operated in a manner that causes it to draw
an abnormally high current. In this situation, turn the
tool off and stop the application that caused the tool to
become overloaded. Then turn the tool on to restart.
If the tool does not start, the battery is overheated. In
this situation, let the battery cool before turning the tool
on again.
Low battery voltage:
The remaining battery capacity is too low and the tool
will not operate. If you turn the tool on, the motor runs
again but stops soon. In this situation, remove and
recharge the battery.
