Charger diagnostics
This charger is designed to detect certain problems that can
arise with the battery packs or the power source. Problems
are indicated by one LED flashing in different patterns.
Bad battery
The charger can detect a weak or damaged
battery. The red LED flashes in the pattern
indicated on the label. If you see this bad
battery blink pattern, do not continue to
charge the battery. Return it to a service
centre or a collection site for recycling.
Hot/cold pack delay
When the charger detects a battery that
is excessively hot or excessively cold, it
automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack delay,
suspending charging until the battery
has normalised. After this happens, the
charger automatically switches to the Pack
Charging mode. This feature ensures
maximum battery life. The red LED flashes
in the pattern indicated on the label when
the Hot/Cold pack delay is detected.
Problem power line
When the charger is used with some
portable power sources such as generators
or sources
that convert DC to AC, the charger may temporarily suspend
operation. The LED flashes in the pattern indicated on the
label. This indicates that the power source is out of limits.
Leaving the battery in the charger
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the
LED glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery
pack fresh and fully charged.
Electronic protection system
Li-Ion batteries are designed with an Electronic Protection
System that will protect the battery against overloading,
overheating or deep discharge. The tool will automatically
turn off if the Electronic Protection System engages. If this
occurs, place the Li-Ion battery on the charger until it is fully
charged.

IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES

Longest life and best performance can be obtained if
the battery pack is charged when the air temperature
is between (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery
pack in an air temperature below (+4.5°C), or above
(+40.5°C).
This is important and will prevent serious damage to the
battery pack.
The charger and battery pack may become warm to
touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and
does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of
the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or
battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal
shed, or an uninsulated trailer.
If the battery pack does not charge properly:
-
Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or
other appliance.
-
Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch
which turns power off when you turn out the lights.
-
Move charger and battery pack to a location where the
surrounding air temperature is approximately (18°-
24°C).
If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack
and charger to your local STANLEY service center.
The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to
produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily
done previously.
DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions.
Follow the charging procedure.
You may also charge a partially used pack whenever
you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.
NOTE: Make sure your battery pack (5) is fully charged.
Fitting and removing the battery (Fig C)
To fit the battery (5), line it up with the receptacle on the
tool. Slide the battery into the receptacle and push until
the battery snaps into place.
To remove the battery, push the release buttons (10)
while at the same time pulling the battery out f the
receptacle.
Fitting and removing a screwdriver bit or socket (Fig D)
This tool is fitted with a quick release bit holder to allow for
an easy exchange of bits.

WARNING! Use only impact sockets. Non-impact
sockets may break and cause a hazardous
condition. Inspect socket prior to use to ensure
that it contains no cracks.
USE
WARNING! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do
not overload.
Charging the battery (Fig B)
The battery needs to be charged before first use and
whenever it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that
were easily done before. The battery may become warm
while charging; this is normal and does not indicate a
problem.
WARNING! Do not charge the battery at ambient
temperatures below 10 °C or above 40 °C.
Recommended charging temperature: approx.
24 °C.
NOTE: The charger will not charge a battery if the cell
temperature is below approximately 10 °C or above 40 °C.
The battery should be left in the charger and the charger
will begin to charge automatically when the cell temperature
warms up or cools down.
