⚠️ Known Issues
- This adapter is compatible with all battery capacities (Ah). However, weak or low-capacity batteries below ~3Ah may experience reduced performance or unstable operation.
-
Due to the built-in delayed output protection, some Kobalt 24V angle grinders may require a short restart sequence.
Turn the tool switch on briefly, wait approximately 3 seconds, then turn the switch on again for normal operation.
Most drill-style tools do not require this additional step.

Important Note – Kobalt 24V Angle Grinders
Because of the internal delayed output protection, some angle grinders may need a quick restart sequence:
- Turn the switch on briefly
- Wait about 3 seconds
- Turn the switch on again
After this, the tool should operate normally. Most drill-style tools do not require this step.
