before use.

 

Many accidents are caused by poorly 

maintained power tools.

f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

 

Properly 

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less 

likely to bind and are easier to control.

g.  Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in 

accordance with these instructions, taking into 
account the working conditions and the work to be 
performed.

 

Use of the power tool for operations different 

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

h.  Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and 

free from oil and grease. 

Slippery handles and grasing 

surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the 

tool in unexpected situations.

5. Battery tool use and care
a. Recharge only with the charger specified by the

manufacturer.

 

A charger that is suitable for one type of 

battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with

another battery pack.

b.  Use power tools only with specificall  designated 

battery packs.

 

Use of any other battery packs may create 

a risk of injury and fire

c. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from 

other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, 
nails, screws, or other small metal objects, that can 
make a connection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns 

or a fire

d. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from 

the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally 
occurs, flush with wate . If liquid contacts eyes, 
additionally seek medical help.

 

Liquid ejected from the 

battery may cause irritation or burns.

e. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or 

modified.

Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit

unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk

of injury.

f. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or

excessive temperature. 

Exposure to fire or temperature

above 265º F may cause explosion.

g.  Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the 

battery pack or tool outside the temperature range 
specified in the instructions.

Charging improperly or at 

temperatures outside the specified range may damage the

battery and increase the risk of fire

6. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair

person using only identical replacement parts.

 

This 

will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

b.  Never service damaged battery packs. 

Service of 

battery packs should only be performed by the 

manufacturer or authorised service providers.

Assembly

Charging procedure (Fig. A)

Stanley Fat Max chargers are designed to charge Stanley Fat 

Max battery packs.

u

Plug the charger (5) into an appropriate outlet before 

inserting the battery pack (4).

u

Insert the battery pack (4) into the charger (5) as shown in 

figure A.

u

The LED (5a) will flash indicating that the battery is being

charged.

u

The completion of charge is indicated by the LED (5a) 

remaining on continuously. 

The pack is fully charged and may be used at this time or 

left on the charger.

Note:

 Recharge discharged batteries as soon as possible 

after use or battery life may be greatly diminished. For longest 

battery life, do not discharge batteries fully.  

It is recommended that the batteries be recharged after each 

use.

Leaving the battery in the charger

The charger (5) and battery pack (4) can be left connected 

with the LED glowing indefinitel .  

The charger will keep the battery pack fresh and fully charged.

Important charging notes

u

Longest life and best performance can be obtained if 

the battery pack is charged when the air temperature is 

between 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the 

battery pack in an air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), 

or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will 

prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

u

The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch 

while charging. This is a normal condition, and does not 

indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery 

pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack 

in a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an 

uninsulated trailer.

u

If the battery pack does not charge properly:

u

Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or 

other appliance.

u

Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch 

which turns power off when you turn out the lights.
