Electrical safety
#
Your charger is double insulated; therefore no
earth wire is required. Always check that the
mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on
the rating plate. Never attempt to replace the
charger unit with a regular mains plug.
u
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer or an authorised STANLEY FATMAX
Service Centre in order to avoid a hazard.
Warning!
Never attempt to replace the charger unit with a
regular mains plug.
Mains plug replacement (U.K. & Ireland only)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
u
Safely dispose of the old plug.
u
Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the
new plug.
u
Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.
Warning!
No connection is to be made to the earth terminal.
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good quality plugs.

Charging the battery (Fig. A)
The battery needs to be charged before first use and
whenever it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were
easily done before. The battery may become warm while
charging; this is normal and does not indicate a problem.
Warning!
Do not charge the battery at ambient temperatures
below 10 °C or above 40 °C. Recommended charging
temperature: approx. 24 °C.
Note: The charger will not charge a battery if the cell
temperature is below approximately 10 °C or above 40 °C.
The battery should be left in the charger and the
charger will begin to charge automatically when the cell
temperature warms up or cools down.
Note:
To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion
battery packs, charge the battery pack fully before first use.
u
Plug the charger (6) into an appropriate outlet before
inserting battery pack (4).
u
The green charging light (6a) will blink continuously
indicating that the charging process has started.
u
The completion of charge will be indicated by the green
charging light (6a) remaining ON continuously. The battery
pack (4) is fully charged and may be removed and used at
this time or left in the charger (6).
u
Charge discharged batteries within 1 week. Battery life will
be greatly diminished if stored in a discharged state.
Charger LED Modes
Charging:
Green LED Intermittent
Fully Charged:
Green LED Solid
Hot/Cold Pack Delay:
Green LED Intermittent
Red LED Solid
Note:
The compatible charger(s) will not charge a faulty
battery pack. The charger will indicate a faulty battery pack by
refusing to light.
Note:
This could also mean a problem with a charger. If the
charger indicates a problem, take the charger and battery
pack to be tested at an authorized service centre.
Leaving the battery in the charger
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the
LED glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery
pack fresh and fully charged.
Hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery that is too hot or too
cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, the green
LED (6a) will flash intermittently, while the red LED (6b) will
remain on continuously, suspending charging until the battery
has reached an appropriate temperature. The charger then
automatically switches to the pack charging mode. This
feature ensures maximum battery life.
