The Battery Charger
Fig. J
WARNING: If any part of the charger is missing or
damaged, do not operate it until the part is repaired or
replaced. Failure to heed this warning could result in
possible serious injury.
BATTERY CHARGING PROCEDURE:
NOTE: The battery is not shipped fully charged. It is
recommended to fully charge before first use to ensure that
maximum run time can be achieved. This lithium-ion
battery will not develop a memory and may be charged at
any time. A fully discharged battery pack will require
approximately 4.5 hours to fully charge.
1. Plug the charger into an AC wall outlet/receptacle.
2. The RED LED power indicator (1) will illuminate.
3. Insert the battery into the charger. Verify that the battery
is fully inserted into the charger.
4. The RED LED indicator (3) will illuminate indicating that
the battery is in CHARGE MODE.
5. Once the battery has reached a full charge level, the LED
indicator (3) will switch from RED to GREEN.
6. The battery may be removed or stored in the charger
once it is fully charged; however, it is recommended to
disconnect the plug from the wall outlet/receptacle.
NOTE: Lithium-ion batteries while in use will continue to
provide full power without power fade unlike typical batteries;
when the battery is fully discharged the battery circuitry will
immediately cut power to the tool and require immediate charging.
