Installation
Installation of the battery is simply the
opposite of its removal. Insert the
battery into the battery compartment
with the arrow pointing toward the
opening. Hold the battery in, and
slide the compartment cover into the
grooves on either side of the compart-
ment opening until its catch clicks
securely in place.

How to Charge the Batteries
Be sure your battery charger is set up in a low-traffic area, away from dust
and splashing water or grease. The AC adapter cord must be plugged into
the connector on the back of the battery charger case, and the adaptor must
be plugged into an electrical outlet. You may place up to six batteries in the
chartger at a time. As each battery is placed in the charger, the red
CHARGING light on the panel in front of the battery will light, indicating the
battery is charging. See Figure 8. When a battery is fully charged, the green
READY light on the panel in front of it will light. Batteries take approximately
10 hours to fully charge.
CAUTION:
Do not remove batteries from the battery charger until the green
READY light is lit, or the charger will restart the charge cycle.
