The power tool is equipped with an overload protection system. In the event of overloading, the power tool automatically shuts off the electronics and the worklight (19) and the status indicator (21) flash.
To switch the tool back on: Release the on/off switch (1). As soon as the worklight (19) is no longer flashing and the status indicator (21) lights up green, you can switch the power tool back on.
