Charging Battery, Important Charging Notes

RECHARGEABLE BATTERY

CHARGING BATTERY

The battery pack is not fully charged at the factory. Before attempting to charge the bat- tery pack, thoroughly read all Safety Instructions.

The charger is designed to use standard house- hold 120 volt 60 Hz power.

1.Plug cord from charger into charger base. (See Figure 1)

4.Unplug charger. Remove the charger by sliding off (See Figure 3).

5.Place the battery pack in the tool and be certain that it is inserted fully into the tool cavity until it “clicks” into place.

3.	While charging, the charger may hum and
	become warm to touch. This is a normal
	condition and does not indicate a prob-
	lem.
4.	If the battery pack does not charge prop-
	erly
	• Check current at receptacle by plugging
		in a lamp or other appliance.
	• Check to see if receptacle is connected
		to a light switch which turns power off
		when you turn out the lights.
	•	Move charger and battery pack to a
		surrounding air temperature of 40°F
		(4,5°C) to 105°F (40,5 °C)
	•	If the receptacle and temperature are
		OK, and you do not get proper charging
		contact DESA Power Tools.

2.Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet. IMPORTANT: Do not charge by means of an engine generator or DC power source. Use only 120V AC.

3.Slide the charger onto the battery pack as shown in Figure 2. The LED will light up, Let the battery pack charge until red LED turns off. After the initial charge, under normal usage, your battery pack should be fully charged in 3 to 9 hours.

IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES

1.After normal usage, your battery pack should be fully charged in 3 to 9 hours. If the battery pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 9 hours to become fully charged. Your battery pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. For best performance charge battery until red LED turns off. Allow the battery to cool down 30 minutes before charging after using the blower/sweeper. NOTE: A hot battery placed in the charger will not charge.

2.DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature below 40°F (4,5 °C) or above 105°F (40,5 °C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack. Longest life and best per- formance can be obtained if battery pack is charged when air temperature is about 75°F (24°C).

5. The battery pack should be recharged
	when it fails to produce sufﬁcient power
	on jobs which were easily done previously.
	DO NOT CONTINUE using product with
	its battery pack in a depleted condition.
6.	To prolong battery life, avoid leaving the
	battery pack on charger for extended pe-
	riods of time (over 30 days without use).
	Although overcharging is not a safety
	concern, it can signiﬁcantly reduce overall
	battery life.
7.	The battery pack will reach optimum per-
	formance after being cycled 5 times during
	normal usage. There is no need to run the
	batteries down completely before recharg-
	ing. Normal usage is the best method of
	discharging and recharging the batteries.
