NOTE: Before using the tool, read the instruction book carefully.
INTENDED USE
The power tool is intended for sawing and separating wooden materials, plastic, plaster, non-ferrous

BEFORE PUTTING INTO OPERATION
A) CHARGING THE BATTERY
The battery charger ACG1815D is matched to the Li-Ion battery ABP1820SD/ABP1830SD. Do not use
another battery charger.
The Li-Ion battery is protected against deep discharging. When the battery is empty, the machine is
switched off by means of a protective circuit: The tool holder no longer rotates.
In a warm environment or after heavy use, the battery pack may become too hot to permit charging.
Allow time for the battery to cool down before recharging.
When the battery pack is charged for the first time and after prolonged storage, the battery pack will
accept a 100% charge after several charge and discharge cycles.
B) TO REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK (See Fig. A1)
Depress the Battery Pack Release Button (2) firmly first and then slide the Battery Pack out from your
tool.
C) TO INSTALL THE BATTERY PACK (See Fig. A2)
Slide the fully charged Battery Pack onto the tool with sufficient force until it clicks into position.
D) HOW TO CHARGE YOUR BATTERY PACK (See Fig. A3)
CHARGING PROCEDURE
1) Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet. The light will be green.
2) Slide the battery pack into the charger, the light will turn to red to indicate the charging process has
started.
3) When charging is completed, the light will turn to green. The pack is now fully charged, unplug the
charger and remove the battery pack.
WARNING: When battery charge runs out after continuously use or exposure to direct
sunlight or heat, allow time for the tool to cool down before re-charging to achieve the
full charge.
CHARGING INDICATOR
This charger is designed to detect some problems that can arise with battery packs. Indicator lights
indicate problems (see table below). If this occurs, insert a new battery pack to determine if the
charger is OK. If the new battery charges correctly, then the original pack is defective and should be
returned to a service center or recycling service center. If the new battery pack displays the same
problem as the original Battery Pack, have the charger tested at an authorized service center.
