Important Charging Notes
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the
battery pack is charged when the air temperature is between
65°F and 75°F (18° - 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery
pack in an air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C) or above
105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will prevent serious
damage to the battery pack.
2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to the
touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and does
not indicate a problem.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check for correct input voltage to charger.
b. Move charger and battery pack to a location where the sur-
rounding air temperature is approximately 65°F - 75°F
(18 - 24°C).
c. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and
charger to your local service center.
4. 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 condi-
tions. Follow the charging procedure. You may also charge
a partially used pack whenever you desire with no adverse
affect on the battery pack.
5. Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the
power supply, the exposed charging contacts inside the char-
ger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of
a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool,
aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be
kept away form charger cavities. Always unplug the charger
from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the
cavity. Unplug charger before attempting to clean.
6. Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
Page Number - 2
Don't allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock
may result. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after
use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm
environment such as a metal shed or an uninsulated trailer.
Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the
plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to
a service center for recycling.
