IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES
1.The battery pack accepts only about 80% of its maximum capacity with its first few charge cycles. However, after the first few charge cycles, the battery will charge to full capacity.
2.The charger was designed to fast charge the battery only when the battery temperature is between 40˚F (4˚C) and 105˚F (41˚C).
3.A substantial drop in operating time per charge may mean that the battery pack is nearing the end of its life and should be replaced.
4.If you anticipate long periods (i.e. a month or more) of
in two or three charge/discharge cycles. Remember to unplug charger during storage period.
5.If battery does not charge properly:
a.Check for voltage at outlet by plugging in some other electrical device.
b.Check to see if outlet is connected to a light switch which turns power “off” when lights are turned off.
c.Check battery pack terminals for dirt. Clean with cotton swab if necessary.
d.If you still do not get proper charging, take or send tool, battery pack and charger to your local Skil Service Center. See “Tools, Electric” in the Yellow Pages for names and addresses.
