OPERATION

INSERTION AND REMOVAL OF RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
After ensuring the correct orientation between the battery and the battery compartment,
insert the rechargeable battery into the machine. Do not apply force when inserting
the battery. Insertion can be achieved easily and without resistance. The battery
must be inserted completely until the battery retention clips on the sides of the
battery compartment automatically lock it into place. To remove the battery press
the battery retention clips and pull the battery out of its compartment.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK:
The rechargeable battery must be charged before the first use. Only recharge the battery once it is
has been fully discharged, i.e. the performance clearly decreases. Otherwise the battery may not
achieve its full capacity at the subsequent charge.
Important! Only use the provided battery charger for charging the battery. First place the
rechargeable battery into the charging slot in the charger and then connect the charger to the outlet.
Charging starts automatically.
Remove the battery from the charge after it's fully charged (after about 75±15 minutes). Always
disconnect the charger from the outlet before you remove the battery from the charger.
•
The charger and battery may become warm to touch while charging. This is a normal
condition and does not indicate a problem.
•
Use the charger at normal room temperatures whenever possible. To prevent overheating,
do not cover the charger and do not charge the battery in direct sunlight or near heat
sources.
•
If the battery does not charge properly, check current at power outlet by plugging in a lamp
or other appliance. If charging problems persist, have the complete impact driver checked
by an electrician or a power tool technician.
BATTERY AND CHARGER SAFETY FEATURES
Overcharge Protection
The Overcharge protection will ensure that the battery is never overcharged. When the battery has
reached its full charge capacity, the charger will shut off, protecting the internal components of the
battery from being damaged.
Over Discharge Protection
An internal component of the battery pack is an over discharge protector. This feature will stop the
battery from discharging beyond the recommended lowest safety voltage.
Overheat Protection
The battery has an internal thermal cutoff sensor which will cease the charging cycle if the battery
becomes hot during the charging process. This thermal sensor will also stop the battery from
operating should the battery become too hot during the operation of the tool. This can happen when
the tool is overloaded or being used for extended periods of time.
