To charge the strobe with the recharger:
1. Release the trigger so the strobe is off.
2. Plug the recharger cable into the recharger socket (located below
the display panel behind the handle).
3. Plug the recharger into an AC mains wall outlet (115/230 V ac).
CAUTION: Use of rechargers other than the one supplied
(PSC-2U) will damage the stroboscope and void the warranty.
When the recharger plug is inserted into the recharger jack, the strobe
will go into the Charging Mode. Make sure the trigger switch is not
depressed. The BBL strobe will not do anything else when charging
(e.g. it will not flash and the buttons have no function).
When charging, the strobe will indicate
CHRGE
in the bottom of the
display. The recharger will fast charge the batteries for about 4-5 hours
and then trickle charge the batteries.
Allow the recharger to charge the batteries until the display shows
DONE
for peak battery life performance. If the batteries are not charged
to 100% regularly, the batteries will lose capacity.
6.3 Stroboscope Disposal
Prior to disposing of the battery-powered strobe, the user must
remove the nickel metal hydride batteries. To do this, first remove
the LED assembly. This will expose four (4) screws that must be
removed so the reflector housing can be dismantled. There are four
(4) additional screws in the case half opposite the input and output
jacks that must be removed. The case halves can now be separated,
exposing the batteries. Remove the cables from the batteries and place
tape over the battery terminals to prevent them from shorting. The
batteries should be sent to a recycling center or returned to the factory.
The rest of the parts may now be disposed.
