OPERATION

lock-off/LOCK-ON BUTTON

Depress the switch trigger.

Release the switch trigger.

Release the lock-on button and the tool will continue running.

To release the lock, depress and release the switch trigger.

If the lock-on feature is engaged during use and the tool becomes disconnected from the power supply, disengage the lock-on feature immediately.

CAUTION:

Never cover air vents. They must always be open for proper motor cooling.
