Battery charging

IMPORTANT.

Before attempting to charge the battery,

check the charger, the charger base and the battery

to ensure the charging equipment matches the battery

supplied. The components are all labelled with

component numbers.

IMPORTANT.

The battery will be fully charged after aprox

45min: remove it from the charger after this time.

Do not leave a battery charging for longer than 24 hours.

Note.

The battery pack will not charge if the battery cells are

hot. If the pack has been directly taken from the drill after

heavy or constant use, the cells will be hot.

Allow the cells to cool before fitting to the charger adaptor.

If the red light does not come on and the green light is

illuminated on the adaptor, the cells are not charging and

the cells require some time to cool.

DO NOT force cool the pack.

1. To install the battery pack on

the charger adaptor, align the

battery pack with the charger

base and insert firmly into

place by aligning the white

arrow indicator with the unlock

symbol on the side of the

charger base.

Press the battery pack into the base and slide the pack

forward until the arrow indicator aligns with the lock

symbol. Ensure the battery pack locks into position: you

will hear a click.

Note:

If the battery pack is incorrectly orientated the battery

will not fully enter the base as depicted.

2. Plug the charger into the

charger base and plug in the

charger and switch on at the

power supply. The red LED

indicator located on the charger

base will indicate that the

battery is being charged.

The green light on the right

hand side of the base indicates

that there is power to the

charger base.

3. The battery charging time is

approximately 45 min, but

can be longer if the cells are

forced during use to the low

voltage cut out range. When

the red LED goes out leaving

the green LED glowing the

charging cycle is complete.

4. Turn off the charger power supply from the mains and then

remove the battery pack from the charger base.

Both the battery pack and the charger may become warm

to touch. This is also normal and not an issue of concern.

Both the battery pack and charger are fitted with thermal

safety devices and they will shut down if the temperatures

become too high.

To obtain the best life for the battery

Never allow the drill to come to a complete stand still

before recharging. The battery should be placed on charge

whenever the battery is noticeably running down or the

drill no longer performs a task it previously performed. For

storage, charge between 50 and 75%. Avoid allowing lose

items like screws or nails etc. to be stored with battery

packs as these or similar items can short battery packs and

cause a fire or explosion.

Always unplug the charger when not in use and store in

a dry secure place.

Avoid charging or storing your battery in temperatures

below 0ºC and above 40ºC.
