• If the overheating protection feature
activates, allow the tool to cool
thoroughly (at least 30 minutes). The
tool is ready for use when the overheat
warning lamp goes out.
• Avoid using the tool in a way that
causes the overheating protection
feature to activate repeatedly.
• If the tool is operated continuously
under high-load conditions or if it is
used in hot-temperature conditions
( s u c h a s d u r i n g s u m m e r ) , t h e
overheating protection feature may
activate frequently.
• If the tool is used in cold-temperature
conditions (such as during winter) or if
it is frequently stopped during use, the
overheating protection feature may not
activate.
• The performance of the EY9L42
deteriorates significantly at and below
10°C due to work conditions and other
factors.
• The ambient temperature range is
between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F).
If the battery pack is used when the
battery temperature is below 0°C
(32°F), the tool may fail to function
properly.
• Use the charger at temperatures
between 0°C and 40°C, and charge the
battery at a temperature similar to that
of the battery itself. (There should be no
more than a 15°C difference between
the temperatures of the battery and the
charging location.)

Not doing so may cause a delay in
rotation starting, or the Impact Power
mode display to flash and prevent rotation
from starting for circuit protection.

minate the small work area temporarily.
• Do not use it as a substitute for a regu-
lar flashlight, since it does not have
enough brightness.
