safety, and to prevent loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of
the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable; that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than
18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure
each extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

8. Use only the supplied charger when charging your tool. The use of any other charger
could damage the tool or create a hazardous condition.
9. Use only one charger when charging.
10. Do not attempt to open the charger. There are no customer serviceable parts inside.
Return to any authorized Black & Decker service center.
11. DO NOT incinerate the tool or batteries even if they are severely damaged or complete-
ly worn out. The batteries can explode in a fire.
12. A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may occur under extreme usage, charg-
ing or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer
seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin:
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 10
minutes and seek immediate medical attention. MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a 25-35%
solution of potassium hydroxide.
Charging Procedure
THE BATTERIES IN YOUR TOOL ARE NOT FULLY CHARGED AT THE FACTORY.
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THEM, THOROUGHLY READ ALL OF THE SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS.
To charge your screwdriver, follow the steps below.
1. Plug the output cord of the charger into the socket in the back of the charger cradle as
shown in Figure 1.
2. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet.
3. Place the NM360 Screwdriver into the cradle making sure to match the charging
contacts on the handle of the screwdriver with the contacts in the charger. The red
(charging) light will illuminate indicating that the charging process has started.
4. Let the screwdriver charge initially for 9 hours. After the initial charge, under normal
usage, your tool should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours.
Important Charging Notes
1. After normal usage, your tool should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours. If the batteries are
run-down completely, it may take up to 6 hours to become fully charged. Your tool was
sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before attempting to use it, it must be
charged for at least 9 hours.
2. DO NOT charge the batteries 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 batteries. Longest
life and best performance can be obtained if batteries are charged when air
temperature is about 75°F.
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal
condition and does not indicate a problem.
4. If the batteries do not charge properly—(1) Check current at receptacle by plugging in a
lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch
which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and tool to a
surrounding air temperature of 40°F (4,5 °C) to 105°F (+40,5 °C). (4) If the charger is
mounted on a wall make sure the charge indicator light is on. If the indicator light
is not on, push unit down to make sure charging contacts are touching. (5) If the
receptacle and temperature are OK, and you do not get proper charging, take or send
the tool and charger to your local Black & Decker service center. See Tools Electric in
yellow pages.
5. The tool should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which
were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using product with its batteries in a
depleted condition.
6. To prolong battery life, avoid leaving on charge for extended periods of time (over 30
days without use). Although overcharging is not a safety concern, it can significantly
reduce overall battery life.
7. The batteries will reach optimum performance after being cycled 5 times during normal
usage. There is no need to run the batteries down completely before recharging.
Normal usage is the best method of discharging and recharging the batteries.
Attaching Screwdriver Bit Tips Holder (Figure 2)
Attach the holder (K) to either side of the charging cradle (F) ( using the screw provided) as

Wall Mounting (Figures 3, 4 & 5)
Use the hardware provided only if hanging on conventional sheet rock or plaster walls. If not

fasteners for that material.
1. Attach the wall mount tool support (J) as shown in figure 3.
support must be securely attached to the charging cradle when it is mounted on a
vertical surface.
2. Choose a location that is within reach of an electrical outlet. Fix the charging cradle (F)
as shown in figure 4 and 5.
NOTE: Avoid damaging the cord while fixing the charging cradle to the wall.
3. Plug in and place the product in position. Make sure the charge indicator light is on.
If the indicator light is not on, push unit down to make sure charging contacts are
touching.

The RBRC™ Seal
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the nickel-
metal hydride battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle the
battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by
Black & Decker. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-metal hydride batteries in
the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an
environmentally conscious alternative.
RBRC in cooperation with Black & Decker and other battery users, has established
programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel-metal
hydride batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning
the spent nickel-metal hydride battery to an authorized Black & Decker service center or to
your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for
information on where to drop off the spent battery, or call 1-800-8-BATTERY.
