WARNING!

Charge only Chicago Pneumatic 9.6V, 12V, 14.4V, 18V battery packs in chargers. Other types of batter- ies may explode causing personal injury and damage.

Charge your battery pack before using your tool for the first time and when your tool no longer performs with the power and torque needed for the job. Full loading capacity of battery pack is only reached after 4 - 5 chargings. Never completely dis- charge the battery pack. Standard charg- ing time will vary according to the type of charger you use. The charging time will also vary depending on the supply voltage and charge needed. For example, if your battery pack does not require a full charge, charging time will be less.

FOR SPECIFIC CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS, PLEASE READ THE CHARGER INSTRUC- TION SHEET SUPPLIED WITH YOUR CHARGER.

Battery packs are affected by tempera- ture. Your battery pack will perform best and have longest life if it is charged when the temperature is between 60°-80°F (15°-27°C). Do not charge in temperatures below 40°F (5°C) or above 105°F (40°C). Under these conditions, capacity will be reduced. See “Maintenance”.
