Battery charger
···(I)
NOTE:
When you charge the battery
pack for the first time, or after
prolonged storage, charge it
for about 24 hours to bring the
batteries up to full capacity.
EY0225
1. Plug the charger into an AC outlet.
NOTE:
Sparks may be produced
when the plug is inserted
into the AC power
supply, but this is not a
problem in terms of safety.
2. Insert the battery pack firmly into
the charger. (Fig. 9)
3. During charging, the charging
lamp will be lit.
When charging is completed, an
internal electronic switch will auto-
matically be triggered to prevent
overcharging.
B
Charging will not start if the bat-
tery pack is warm (for example,
immediately after heavy-duty
operation). The orange standby
lamp will be lit until the battery
cools down. Charging will then
begin automatically.
4. When charging is completed, the
charging lamp will start flashing rapidly.
5. If a fully charged battery pack is
inserted into the charger again, the
charging lamp may light up and then
flash slowly. After several minutes,
the charging lamp may flash quickly
to indicate the charging is completed.
6. If the charging lamp does not light
immediately after the charger is
plugged in, or if after the standard
charging time the lamp does not go
off, consult an authorized dealer.
NOTE:
• When a cold battery (of about 5°C
or less) is to be charged in a warm
room, leave the battery in the room
for at least one hour and charge it
when it has warmed up to room
temperature. (Failing to do so may
result in less than a full charge.)
• Cool down the charger when
charging more than two battery
packs consecutively.
CAUTION:
• Do not use power source from
an engine generator.
• Unplug the charger when not
in use.
Bit locking function
With the switch at off, the bit is
locked in place, and the tool can be
used as a manual screw-driver - up
to 14.7Nm (150kgf-cm, 130 in-lbs).
There will be a little play in the driving
shaft, but this is not a malfunction. (Fig. 4)
Main switch (ON/OFF)
···(C)
Push the upper half of the switch for
forward rotation, or the lower half for
reverse rotation. (Fig. 5)
Speed selector switch
···(A)
To suit the application of this tool,
two different rotational speeds are
available. Depending upon use,
either the high or low speed should
be selected.
CAUTION:
Check rotational speed
selection before operating this tool. (Fig. 6)
Main switch lock
···(B)
After use, set the main switch lock at
the lock position to prevent acciden-
tal operation. (Fig. 7)
Battery pack (EY9025)
···(E)
CAUTION
1. Press the battery pack release
buttons on both sides and pull the
pack away from the tool.
2. Charge the battery pack using the
battery charger.
3. After the charging has been complet-
ed, remove the battery pack from the
charger and connect it to the tool.
Disconnect the charger form the
power source when not in use. (Fig. 8)
Battery pack life
The rechargeable batteries have a
limited life. If operation time becomes
extremely short after recharging, replace
the battery pack with a new one.
NOTE:
• Use under extremely hot or
cold conditions will reduce
operating capacity per charge.
Battery Recycling
For environmental protection and
recycling of materials, be sure that it is
disposed of at an officially assigned
location, if there is one in your country.
