Use
Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
Charging the battery (Fig. A)
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.
Note: To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion
battery packs, charge the battery pack fully before first use.
Plug the charger (8) into an appropriate outlet before
u
inserting battery pack (7).
The green charging light (8a) will blink continuously
u
indicating that the charging process has started.
The completion of charge will be indicated by the green
u
charging light (8a) remaining ON continuously. The battery
pack (7) is fully charged and may be removed and used at
this time or left in the charger (8).
Charge discharged batteries within 1 week. Battery life will
u
be greatly diminished if stored in a discharged state.

(Original instructions)
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.
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, the green
LED (8a) will flash intermittently, while the red LED (8b) will
remain on continuously, 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.
Battery state of charge indicator (Fig. B)
The battery includes a state of charge indicator to quickly
determine the extent of battery life as shown in figure B. By
pressing the state of charge button (7a) you can easily view
the charge remaining in the battery as illustrated in figure B.
Installing and Removing the Battery Pack from
the tool
Warning! Make certain the lock-off button is engaged to
prevent switch actuation before removing or installing battery.
