PREPARING THE SAW
This product is delivered "bare" without the battery and charger. Compatible accessories are availa-
ble from the manufacturer.
Important: Only the designated AlzaTools batteries and chargers must be used with this product.
The use of other batteries and chargers is a violation of the warranty.
Once charging begins, the battery charger can generally be left unattended. Internal circuits ensure
optimal charging and monitor for any excess. When charging is complete, only the maintenance
current flows to maintain the full capacity of the battery.
Warning!
• Check the condition of the charger and battery before each charge. If you find any signs of
damage, contact the manufacturer.
Before charging, the battery must first be disconnected from the tool.
How to disconnect the battery:
• Press the battery latch and gently pull the battery out of the tool.
• Connect the charger supply to a standard 230 V AC/10 A mains socket.
• The green LED indicates that the charger is powered.
• Insert the battery into the charger so that the battery and charger contacts properly connect.
• After a few seconds, the charging LED lights up and the green LED goes out.
Warning!
• Make sure the battery is inserted correctly in the charger. Improper battery insertion will damage
the charger or battery.
• When the battery is fully charged, the green LED lights up.
Warning!
• If the lights go out during charging, disconnect the charger from the mains, remove the battery and
replace it with another one.
End of charging cycle:
• Unplug the charger from the wall outlet.
ATTENTION: Do not pull on the cable.
• Always hold the power supply by the plug.
• Remove the battery from the charger.
• Hold the charger with one hand and remove the battery with the other.
ATTENTION: The charger is hot after prolonged use. We recommend a 15-minute break before
charging another battery.
If the battery is overheated after use or, for example, due to sunlight, charging will not start. In this
case, allow the battery to cool.
If the red charger light flashes quickly after 0.2 s, check the battery connector for foreign objects. If
you do not find a fault, the battery or charger may be defective. Repeat the whole procedure and wait
for the charger to return to normal.
