XLT Lithium-Ion Battery Packs
Battery Pack
– Fully Charge Before Using
New batteries must be charged before first use. A complete charge will typically take 2-4 hours. This will
elongate the life of the battery as well and allow for the drill to receive the proper wattage needed.
Battery Pack Operational Characteristics
Compared to NiCad battery pack types, XLT Lithium-Ion battery packs deliver fade-free power for their entire
run time. The drill will not experience a slow, gradual loss of power as you work. This allows for your drill to
work as hard as it can during the full length of the battery charge.
Battery Pack Protection
To protect itself from damage and extend its life, the
battery pack’s intelligent circuit monitors current draw and
temperature. In extremely high torque, binding, stalling, and short circuit situations, the battery pack will turn
OFF the drill if the current draw becomes too high. To reset the drill, unplug the battery pack and slide it in and
out of the drill. Under extreme circumstances, the internal temperature of the battery could become too high. If
this happens, the drill will not operate. Allow the battery to cool down or use a spare battery pack if available.
Cold Weather Operation
XLT Lithium-Ion battery packs are designed to operate in temperatures below freezing. When the battery pack
is too cold, it may need to warm up before normal use. Warm the battery pack up to allow for the battery to
perform as needed to operate the drill.
Maintenance and Storage
Do not expose your battery pack to water or allow it to get wet. This could damage the drill and/or battery pack.
Do not use oil or solvents to clean or lubricate your battery pack. The plastic casing will become brittle and
crack, increasing risk of injury. Store battery packs at room temperature away from moisture. Do not store in
damp locations where corrosion of terminals may occur. As with other battery pack types, permanent capacity
loss can result if the pack is stored for long periods of time at high temperatures (over 120° F).
Disposal of XLT Li-Ion Battery Packs
Lithium-Ion battery packs are more environmentally friendly than some other types of battery packs. Always
dispose of your battery pack according to federal, state and local regulations. Contact a recycling agency in
your area for recycling locations. Even discharged battery packs contain some energy. Before disposing, use
electrical tape to cover the terminals to prevent the battery pack from shorting, which could cause a fire or
explosion.
