Unlike other battery-pack types, Lithium-ton battery packs deliver fade-free
power for their entire run time. The tool will not experience a slow, gradual
loss of power as you work. To signal that the battery pack is at the end of its
run time and needs to be charged, power to the tool will drop quickly. The
POWER BAR will begin to display four flashing LED lights when the battery
is completely discharged. When this happens, remove the tool from the work
