2.4. RAD Battery Charger
The Charging Status Display (Figure 2.4-1) indicates
when the RAD HD Battery is charging, when the
charge is complete, and if there is an error.
2.4.1. Charging the RAD HD Battery Pack
If the battery was discharged under heavy load, the charger may indicate a battery overtemperature (Solid
red warning light). This is normal. Keep the battery on the charger while the battery cools. The charging
process will start automatically after about 15 to 30 minutes.
Note:
The temperature range for charging is 0˚C to 50˚C (32˚ F to 122˚ F).
To charge the RAD HD Battery:
1. Plug the RAD Battery Charger into the wall outlet. The Red Warning Light will turn on for
one second and then the Green Status Light will turn on for one second.
2. Align the RAD HD Battery with the RAD Battery Charger.
3. Slide the RAD HD Battery into place. The Green Status Light will fl ash while the RAD HD
Battery is charging.
When the RAD HD Battery has been fully charged, the Green Status Light will stop fl ashing and stay
illuminated. Until the RAD HD Battery is removed from the RAD Battery Charger, the Charger will maintain
the battery charge at maximum capacity.
To remove the RAD HD Battery:
1. Slide the RAD HD Battery away from the RAD Battery Charger.
2. Check that the RAD HD Battery is fully charged
(refer to Section 2.4 RAD HD Battery Charge).
2.4.2. Charging Errors
The Red Warning Light is on:
The RAD HD Battery is not charging because its temperature is not within the required temperature range
for charging. When the RAD HD Battery’s temperature changes to within the required range, the Red
Warning Light will turn off and charging will start.
The Red Warning Light is flashing:
The RAD HD Battery may be placed incorrectly on the RAD Battery Charger. Remove the RAD HD Battery
and replace it correctly on the RAD Battery Charger. If the Red Warning Light continues to fl ash, the RAD
HD Battery is defective; remove the RAD HD Battery immediately.
If these problems continue, contact Radial Torque Tools B.V. Technical Support (refer to Section 6. Contact
Us) or your RAD Distributor.
