Switch action
WARNING:
For your safety, this tool is
equipped with the lock-off lever which prevents
the tool from unintended starting. NEVER use the
tool if it runs when you simply pull the switch trig-
ger without releasing the lock-off lever. Return the
tool to our authorized service center for proper
repairs BEFORE further usage.
CAUTION:
Before installing the battery car-
tridge into the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to
the "OFF" position when released. Operating a tool
with a switch that does not actuate properly can lead
to loss of control and serious personal injury.
NOTICE:
Do not pull the switch trigger hard with-
out releasing the lock-off lever. This can cause
switch breakage.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off lever is provided. The switch trigger is
locked when the lock-off lever is in the original position
and unlocked when the lock-off lever is pushed upward.
To start the tool, pull the switch trigger while pushing the
lock-off lever upward. Release the switch trigger to stop.
