To recharge the accumulator, proceed as follows:
– connect the battery charger (4) to a mains power
socket; a green indicator light (5) will come on in-
dicating there is voltage;
– connect the battery charger (4) plug (3) to the ac-

NOTE
come on, check that power is supplied to the mains
socket.
The indicator light (5) will go from green to red in-
dicating that accumulator charging has begun.
When the accumulator is completely charged, the
indicator light (5) will go from red to green and
recharging will stop automatically.
It takes about 3-5 hours to complete the recharge
process, according to the starting status of the ac-
cumulator.
It is not necessary to check the recharge time.
The accumulator will heat up during the recharge
process. This is normal and is not due to defects or
faults.
IMPORTANT
green indicator light (5) indicates that the accumu-
lator is broken or burned out and will not accept the
charging. In this situation, unplug the battery
charger and do not attempt to recharge; take the
accumulator to a service centre to verify and/or re-
place it.
When recharging has been completed,
– position the charged accumulator (1) in its seat
on the tool, pushing inwards until both side but-
tons click into place; the accumulator will only fit
