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.

Assembly
@
Warning!
Before assembly, remove the battery
from the tool and make sure that the saw blade has
stopped. Used saw blades may be hot.
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 (12) into an appropriate outlet before
inserting battery pack (1).
u
The green charging light (12a) will blink continuously
indicating that the charging process has started.
u
The completion of charge will be indicated by the green
charging light (12a) remaining ON continuously. The
battery pack (1) is fully charged and may be removed and
used at this time or left in the charger (12).
u
Charge discharged batteries within 1 week. Battery life will
be greatly diminished if stored in a discharged state.

Note: The compatible charger(s) will not charge a faulty

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.
