Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged. Always stop tool operation and
charge the battery cartridge when you notice less
tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room
temperature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let a
hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. When not using the battery cartridge, remove it
from the tool or the charger.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or

Installing or removing battery cartridge
(Fig. 1)
• Always switch off the tool before insertion or removal of
the battery cartridge.
• To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from the
tool while pressing the buttons on both sides of the
cartridge.
• To insert the battery cartridge, hold it so that the battery
cartridge front shape fits to that of the battery
installment opening and slip it into place. Always insert
it all the way until it locks in place with a little click. If
not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing
injury to you or someone around you.

• Be sure to empty out the dust inside the cleaner itself.
Failure to do so may cause the filter to be clogged or
the motor to be damaged. (Fig. 3)
In order to drop dust sticking on the filter in the capsule,
tap the capsule 4 or 5 times with your hand. (Fig. 4)
Now point suction inlet downwards, turn capsule in
