OPERATION

TO CHARGE

A fully discharged battery pack with a temperature between 32°F (0°C) and 150°F (65°C) will charge in about an hour.

Charge the 24 Volt lithium-ion battery pack only with the charger provided.

� Connect the charger to a power supply.

NOTE: If needed, the charger can operate with most generators and inverters rated at 300 Watts or higher.

 Attach the battery pack to the charger by aligning the

raised ribs on the battery pack with the grooves in the

charger, then slide the battery pack onto the charger. See

Figure 4.

 Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or

cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.

 After charging is complete, the continuous green light

will come on and the charge level indicator lights on the

battery will go off.

CHARGE LEVEL INDICATOR

See Figure 5.

The charge level indicator shows that the battery is charged at 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, or full capacity. To display the amount of charge left in the battery, press and hold the charge level indicator button.

NOTE: When the battery pack contains less than 10% charge, the 1/4 charge level indicator will flash.

CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK

If the battery pack is above normal temperature range, the red LED will begin flashing and the green LED will be off. When the battery pack cools down to approximately 150° F (65°C), the charger will automatically begin fast charge mode.

NOTE: Refer to CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK for normal recharging of batteries. If the charger does not charge the battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest repair center for electrical check. For the location of your nearest repair center, please call 1-866-539-1710.

CHARGING A COOL BATTERY PACK

If the battery pack is below normal temperature range, the red LED will begin flashing and the green LED will be off. When the battery warms to a temperature of more than 14°F (-10°C), the charger will automatically begin charge mode.

COLD WEATHER OPERATION

The lithium-ion battery pack can be used in temperatures down to -4°F. When the battery pack is very cold, it may “buzz” for the first minute of use to warm itself up. Put the battery pack on a tool and use the tool in a light duty application. After about a minute, the pack will have warmed itself up and begin operating normally.
