Charging

1.The Battery Pack (44) requires charg- ing before the initial use. The recom- mended initial charge time is eight hours, prior to initial use of the Cord- less Drill/Driver. Place the Charger on a solid surface such as a garage floor; never on anything flammable.

Note: Always switch to a fresh battery when tool performance begins to diminish. Severe heat is destructive to batteries; the more heat generated, the faster the battery will lose power. A battery that gets too hot can be permanently damaged. Never over- discharge a battery by using the tool after performance decreases. Never

attempt to discharge a battery by continuing to pull the trigger. When tool performance begins to diminish, stop the tool, recharge the battery, and use a fully charged battery for optimal performance.

2.When the Battery Pack-after initial charge-requires recharging, it must charge for three to five hours in order to operate at full power.

3.Charging room temperature: 50° F. – 104° F.

4.Depress both buttons at the rear of the Battery Pack and slide the unit down to detach from the Drill/Driver.
