The green light of the charging indicator will turn on.
2. Insert the battery into the charger by sliding it as shown
in the picture. The green light will turn off and the red
light should turn on, indicating that charging has started.
3. When the battery is fully charged, the green light will
turn on and the red light will turn off.
4. Disconnect the charger from the power supply when
charging is complete.
Battery failures
• If the red light flashes, it is a sign that the battery has a delay
caused by the heat; wait until the battery temperature is in the proper range to be able to charge.
• The red light remains on exceeding the recommended charging time or if the red and green light flash alternately it is a
sign that the battery is defective; you must replace it or use a
Considerations for battery use
• Longer life and better performance can be obtained if the
battery unit is charged in room temperature between 41ºF
and 113ºF Allow a hot battery pack to cool before charging.
• The charger and battery unit may heat up slightly during
the charging process. This is normal and does not represent
any problem. To make it easier to cool the battery unit after
use, avoid placing the charger or battery unit in a warm
place, such as a metal shed or trailer without thermal
insulation.
• The battery unit should be recharged when it is not able to
produce enough power for jobs that were easily performed
before. DO NOT CONTINUE to use it under these
circumstances. Follow the charging procedure.
• The best storage place is one that is cool and dry, away
from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.
• For optimal results during extended storage times, it is
recommended to store the fully charged battery unit in a
cool, dry place outside the charger.
Tool/battery protection system
CAUTION
• The tool is equipped with a system that
automatically stops the tool to prolong both its useful life and
that of the batteries, this happens in the following cases:
Overload. When the tool is forced, the battery consumes
abnormally high current levels. Suspend overexertion work
and turn the tool back on.
Overheating. Let the tool and battery cool before turning it
back on.
Over-discharge. The battery level is low. In this case,
remove the battery from the tool and charge it.
