Battery Pack Operation
The equipment is powered by two lithium-ion batteries.
The battery packs are completely sealed and maintenance
free.
m
WARNING!
The cordless turbine jet blower can only be
powered by both of the batteries together. One battery cannot
provide sufficient power to the tool. Make sure to use two
batteries of the same voltage and the same capacity. Using the
tool with batteries of different capacity will cause damage to
the batteries.
m
WARNING!
Before first use, the batteries require
55 min
charge time to be fully charged. When the batteries are at low
capacity, recharge for 55 min again before resuming operation.
Battery Charge Level Indicator
The battery packs are 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, connect the battery to 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
m
WARNING!
Charge only iON+ 24V lithium-ion battery
packs with their 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 Batteries
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 packs before placing them into the charger.
• Use the battery charge indicator lights to determine when to
charge your iON+ 24VBAT lithium-ion battery packs.
• You can "top-off" your battery packs' charge before starting
a big job or after a long day of use.
