OPERATION

WARNING:

Exercise caution when using this tool. Careless actions, for even a fraction of a second, can result in serious personal injury.

CHARGING YOUR DRILL-DRIVER

The battery pack for this tool has been shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge it prior to use.

Note: Batteries will not reach full charge the first time they are charged. Allow several cycles (drilling followed by re- charging) for them to fully charge.

TO CHARGE

Charge battery pack only with the charger provided.

Make sure power supply is normal house voltage, 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only.

Connect charger to power supply.

Place battery pack in charger. See Figure 8. Align raised rib on battery pack with groove in charger.

Press down on battery pack to be sure contacts on battery pack engage properly with contacts in charger. When properly connected, red light will turn on.

Normally, the yellow and green lights on the charger will come on. This indicates charger is in control charge mode and should switch to fast charge mode within 5 minutes. When charger is in fast charge mode the red light will come on. If after a period of 15 minutes the yellow and green lights remain on, remove the battery pack, wait 1 minute and re-insert battery pack in charger. If the yellow and green lights continue to remain on an additional 15 minutes, the battery pack is damaged and will not accept charge.

When your battery pack becomes fully charged, the red light will turn off and the green light will turn on.

After normal usage, 1 hour of charge time is required to be fully charged. A minimum charge time of 1 to 1-1/2 hours is required to recharge a completely discharged tool.

The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.

DO NOT place charger in an area of extreme heat or cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.
