OVERLOAD PROTECTION
RYOBI 18 V lithium-ion batteries are designed with features
that protect the lithium-ion cells and maximise battery life. If
the tool stops during use, the following may be the causes:
■ The maximum current draw of the battery has been
exceeded, causing it to automatically stop powering the
product. Release the trigger to reset the product, and
pull the trigger to resume operation.
■ Excessive temperatures cause the battery to stop
powering the product. Feel the battery pack; if it is too
warm, allow it to cool down.

both to cool down before storing or transporting.

chemicals and de-icing salts. Do not store the product
outdoors.

against movement or falling to prevent injury to persons
or damage to the product.
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Transport the battery pack in accordance with local and
national provisions and regulations. Follow all special
requirements on packaging and labelling when transporting
