Battery Pack Operation
The equipment is powered by a lithium-ion battery. The battery
pack is completely sealed and maintenance free.
m
WARNING!
Before first use, the battery requires at least
1 hr and 50 mins
charge time to be fully charged. When the
battery is at low capacity, recharge for 1 hr and 50 mins
again
before resuming operation.
Battery Charge Level Indicator
The battery pack is equipped with a push button for checking
the charge level. Simply press the push button to read off the
battery charge level from the LEDs of the battery indicator:
• All 3 level monitoring LEDs are lit: Battery charge level
is high.
• 2 level monitoring LEDs are lit: Battery charge level is
decreasing. Stop work as soon as possible.
• 1 level monitoring LED is lit: Battery is flat. Stop work
IMMEDIATELY and charge the battery. Otherwise the
battery’s service life will be greatly shortened.
NOTE: If the charge level button does not appear to be
working, insert the battery into the charger and charge as
needed.
NOTE:
Immediately after using the battery pack, the charge
level button may display a lower charge than it will if checked
a few minutes later. The battery cells “recover” some of their
charge after resting.
Charger Operation

WARNING!
Charge only iON+ 24V lithium-ion battery
packs with its compatible iON+ 24V lithium-ion charger. Other
types of batteries may cause personal injury and damage.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not allow water to flow
into the charger's AC/DC plug.
When to Charge the iON+ 24VBAT
Lithium-Ion Battery
NOTE: The iON+ 24VBAT lithium-ion battery packs do
not develop a "memory" when charged after only a partial
discharge. Therefore, it is not necessary to run down the
battery pack before placing it into the charger.
• Use the battery charge indicator lights to determine when to
charge your iON+ 24VBAT lithium-ion battery pack.
• You can "top-off" your battery pack's charge before starting
a big job or after a long day of use.
