Before Using
m
WARNING!
Before first use, the battery requires at least
5 hours charge time to be fully charged. Recharge for 3-5
hours again before resuming operation.
NOTE: The charge level indicator LED light will illuminate red
when the charger is plugged in and is charging the driver.
When the battery is fully charged, the charging process stops
and the charging indicator light will automatically turn OFF.
Charging Procedure
m
WARNING!
The battery charger supplied matches
the lithium-iON battery installed in the tool. Do not use other
battery chargers.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not allow water to flow
into the charger's AC/DC plug.
m
WARNING!
Continued and excessive overuse of the
ON/OFF trigger switch can permanently damage the lithium-
iON battery.
The charging process starts as soon as the charger is plugged
into both the proper electrical outlet and the tool.
• During the charging procedure, the handle of the tool will
feel slightly warm to the touch. This is normal.
• When no further use is planned for an extended period of
time, disconnect the battery charger from the outlet and the
unit.
• Do not use the tool during the charging procedure.
Battery Charging
The length of service between each charging varies depending
on the type of work you are doing. The battery in this driver
has been designed to provide maximum trouble-free life.
However, like all batteries, it will eventually wear out. To obtain
the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following:
• Store and charge your driver in a cool area. Temperatures
above or below normal room temperature will shorten
battery life.
• Never store the driver with the battery in a discharged
condition. Recharge the unit immediately after it is
discharged.
• All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the
temperature is, the faster they lose their charge. If you
store your driver for long periods of time without using
it, recharge the battery every 6 months. This will extend
battery life.
NOTE: The driver has been shipped in a low charge condition
and should be fully charged before use.
1. Plug the charger adaptor into an appropriate AC power
outlet. Connect the AC adaptor charger plug into the
charging socket of the driver (Fig. 1).
NOTE: The charge level indicator LED light will illuminate red
when the charger is plugged in and is charging the driver.
2. The battery will take approximately 3 hours to charge.
Charging may take up to 5 hours due to the level of
charge left in the battery and the ambient temperature.
NOTE: When the battery is fully charged, the charging process
stops and the charging indicator light will automatically turn
OFF.
