Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise
subjected
to damage or stress.
•
An extension
cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary.
Use of improper
extension
cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.
If an extension
cord must be used, make sure:
That the pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size and shape of those
of plug on charger.
That extension
cord is properly wired and in good electrical
condition
and the wire size
is large enough for AC ampere rating of charger as specified
below.
An extension
cord must have adequate
wire size (AWG or American
Wire Gauge) for safety.

INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
READ AND UNDERSTAND
ALL OF THE INSTRUCTIONS
IN THIS MANUAL
BEFORE
ATTEMPTING
TO CHARGE THE BATTERY
PACK FOR YOUR TOOL,
Your charger is designed to use standard
120 volt AC, 60 Hz power. Do not use DC or any
other voltage.
Charge time is 3 to 6 hours depending
on battery pack type and condition.
CHARGING
PROCEDURE
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate
outlet.
2.
Insert 1 or 2 batteries
into the charger (Figure 1).
NOTE: Charge time is the same for multiple batteries.
Be sure the battery is fully
seated
in the charger. The red "Charging
Indicator"
light will come on indicating
that
there is contact between
the battery and charger. The light will stay on as long as the
battery is in the charger
and the charger is plugged into a working
outlet. It WILL NOT
flash, go out or change to a different color when the charging
cycle is complete.
Remove
pack from the charger and place in tool. NOTE: To remove the battery from
the tool, press down on the release button on the back of the battery (Figure 2) and pull
out.
LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER
The charger and battery pack can be left connected
with the red light glowing indefinitely. The
charger will keep the battery pack fresh and fully charged.
NOTE: A battery pack will slowly lose its charge when kept out of the charger. If the battery
pack has not been kept on maintenance
charge, it may need to be recharged
before use. A
battery pack may also slowly lose its charge if left in a charger that is not plugged into an
appropriate
AC source.
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 touch while charging. This is a
normal condition,
and does not indicate a problem.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly
-- (1) Check power 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 bat-
tery pack to a location where the surrounding
air temperature
is approximately
65°F - 75°F (18 °- 24°C). (4) If charging
problems persist, take or send the tool, battery
pack and charger to your local service center.
4. The battery pack should be recharged
when it does not produce sufficient
power on jobs
which were easily done previously.
DO NOT CONTINUE
use under these
conditions.
Follow the charging
procedures.
You may also charge a partially used pack
whenever
you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.
5. Black & Decker battery packs that are labeled "NiMH" should only be used with
chargers
labeled "NiMH" or "NiCd/NiMH."
6. Under certain conditions,
with the charger plugged into the power supply, the exposed
charging contacts inside the charger 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 from 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.
7. Do not immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
