OPERATION
WARNING! The charger and battery pack are specially
designed to work together so do not attempt to use any other
devices. Never insert or allow metallic objects into your charger
or battery pack connections because of an electrical failure and
hazard will occur.
You must charge once before use. The battery charger supplied
is matched to the Li-ion battery supplied with the machine. Do
not use another battery charger.
Charging Your Battery Pack
The battery needs to be charged before first use and whenever
it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were easily done
before. After several charge and discharge cycles, the battery
will attain full capacity. The battery may become warm while
charging; this is normal and does not indicate a problem.
Remove it from the tool and insert it into the charge station.
The battery pack will only fit into the charger in one way. Do not
force. Be sure that battery is fully seated in the charger.
Read all of the instructions in the battery charger section of this
manual before attempting to charge the battery pack for your
tool.
These chargers require no adjustment and are designed to
be as easy as possible to operate. Simply place your battery
pack into the receptacle of a plugged in charger and it will
automatically charge the pack.
