OPERATION
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK GENERAL
Before using your cordless Drill/Driver for the first time, the battery pack
should be fully charged. If the battery pack is installed in the Driver/Drill,
remove it by following instructions under INSTALLING OR REMOVING
BATTERY PACK.
As a battery pack approaches the discharged state, you will notice a sharp
drop in tool performance. When the tool is unable to perform the task at hand,
it is time to recharge the battery pack. Recharging the battery pack before this
condition is reached will reduce the total work life of the pack. Discharging the
pack beyond this point can damage the pack.
NOTE:
Battery temperature will increase during and shortly after use.
Batteries may not accept a full charge if they are charged immediately
after use. Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature before
charging for best results.
CAUTION:
Do not charge battery when temperature is BELOW 40°F
(4.4°C) or ABOVE 104°F (40°C).
NORMAL CHARGING
Make sure power circuit voltage is
the same as that shown on the
charger specification plate. Charge
the battery pack only with the
charger supplied with the tool.
Connect the current carrying prongs
on the power cord to the power
source. Connect the other end of the
power cord (D) Fig. 5, to the charger
(C). The red light (R) Fig. 6, should
light up. This indicates the charger is
ready to begin charging.
Position battery pack on charger, align rails (A) Fig. 5 on charger with the four
tabs (E) Fig. 6 on the battery pack. Slide battery forward onto charger until it
stops.
After approximately six to eight hours, the battery pack is fully charged.
IMPORTANT: THE BATTERY PACK SHOULD NOT BE LEFT ON THE
CHARGER FOR MORE THAN FORTY-EIGHT HOURS.
