Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
Charging the battery (fig. D)
The battery needs to be charged before first use and whenev- er it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were easily done before. The battery may become warm while charging; this is normal and does not indicate a problem.
Warning! Do not charge the battery at ambient temperatures below 10 °C or above 40 °C. Recommended charging tem- perature: approx. 24 °C.
Note: The charger will not charge a battery if the cell temperature is below approximately 0 °C or above 40 °C. The battery should be left in the charger and the charger will begin to charge automatically when the cell tempera- ture warms up or cools down.
uTo charge the battery (4), insert it into the charger (10). The battery will only fit into the charger in one way. Do not force. Be sure that the battery is fully seated in the charger.
uPlug in the charger and switch on at the mains.
The charging indicator (11) will flash green continuously (slowly).
Leaving the battery in the charger
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the LED glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery pack fresh and fully charged.
Charger diagnostics
If the charger detects a weak or damaged battery, the charging indicator (1) will flash red at a fast rate. Proceed as follows:
u
uIf the charging indicators continues flashing red at a fast rate, use a different battery to determine if the charging process works properly.
uIf the replaced battery charges correctly, the original battery is defective and should be returned to a service centre for recycling.
uIf the new battery gives the same indication as the original battery, take the charger to be tested at an authorised services centre.
Note: It may take as long as 60 minutes to determine that the battery is defective. If the battery is too hot or too cold, the LED will alternately blink red, fast and slow, one flash at each speed and repeat.
