60 Hz power.
1. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical
outlet (figure A).
2. Slide the charger onto the battery pack as shown in figure B
and let the battery pack charge initially for 9 hours. After the
initial charge, under normal usage, your battery pack should
be fully charged in 6 to 9 hours.

IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES
1. After normal usage, your battery pack should be fully charged in 6 to 9 hours. If
the battery pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 9 hours to become fully
charged. Your battery pack 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 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. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if battery pack is
charged when air temperature is about 75°F (24°C).
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 battery pack does not charge property--(1) Check current at receptacle by
plugging in a tamp 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 battery pack to a surrounding air temperature of 40°F (+4.5°C) to
105°F (+40.5°C). (4) If the receptacle and temperature are ok, and you do not get
proper charging, take or send the battery pack and charger to your local Black &
Decker service center. See Tools Electric in yellow pages.
5. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on
jobs which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using unit with its
battery pack in a depleted condition.
6. The battery pack wilt reach optimum performance after being cycled 5 times
during normal usage. There is no need to run the battery pack down completely
before recharging. Normal usage is the best method of discharging and recharging
the battery pack.
