• Do not disassemble the charger; take it to an
authorised service centre when service or repair
is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk
of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
• In case of damaged power supply cord the
supply cord must be replaced immediately by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified
person to prevent any hazard.
• Disconnect the charger from the outlet before
attempting any cleaning. This will reduce the
risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack
will not reduce this risk.
• NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
• The charger is designed to operate on the
voltage specified in the Charger Specifications
chart. Do not attempt to use it on any other
voltage. Refer to your Charger Model No. for the
correct specification.

9. Chargers

The EBCB105 charger accepts EBC180, EBC181 &
EBC183, 18 V Li-Ion battery packs.
This charger requires no adjustment and is designed
to be as easy as possible to operate.
10. Charging Procedures (fi g. 2)
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet
before inserting the battery pack. (Refer to the
Charger Specifications)
2. Insert the battery pack (K) into the charger,
making sure the pack is fully seated in the
charger. The red (charging) light will blink
continuously indicating that the charging-
process has started.
3. The completion of charge will be indicated by
the red light remaining ON continuously. The
pack is fully charged and may be used at this
time or left in the charger.
NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and life of
Li-Ion battery packs, charge the battery for a minimum
of 10 hours before first use.

11. Charging Process

Refer to the table below for the state of charge of the
battery pack.

This charger will not charge a faulty battery pack.
The charger will indicate faulty battery by refusing to
light or by displaying problem pack or charger blink
pattern.
NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger.
If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger
and battery pack to be tested at an authorised service
centre.
12. Hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery that is too hot
or too cold, it automatically starts a hot/cold pack
delay, suspending charging until the battery has
reached an appropriate temperature. The charger then
automatically switches to the pack charging mode.
This feature ensures maximum battery life. STANLEY
Engineered Fastening Li-Ion tools 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. A cold battery pack will charge at about half
the rate of a warm battery pack. The battery pack
will charge at that slower rate throughout the entire
charging cycle and will not return to maximum charge
rate even if the battery warms.
13. Important Safety Instructions
for All Battery Packs
When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure to
include the catalogue number and voltage.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton.
Before using the battery pack and charger, read the
safety instructions below and then follow the charging
procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not charge or use the battery pack in
explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or
removing the battery pack from the charger may
ignite the dust or fumes.
• Never force the battery pack into charger. Do
not modify the battery pack in any way to fit
into a non-compatible charger as battery pack
may rupture causing serious personal injury.
