Fitting And Removing The Battery Pack

WARNING. Ensure the battery is inserted straight into the drill and never on an angle.

To remove the battery pack from the drill firmly press the battery pack release tabs (5) at either side of the battery pack, and pull the battery pack out of the tool.

To fit the battery pack, slide the

battery pack into the drill until the release tabs (5) lock the battery into place. The battery should slide fully on to the drill foot until the battery pack latches “click” into position.

Battery Charging

IMPORTANT. Before inserting into or removing the battery pack (6) from the battery charger cradle (7) always ensure that the plug is not in the mains socket.

ATTENTION. Never charge the battery for longer than 7 hours. Doing so will void battery warranty.

1.Insert the charger plug (6) into the socket on the side of the charger stand (7).

2.Connect the battery charger to a suitable power supply socket and switch on the power.

Note. The green LED power indicator (9) will show there is power going to the charger.

3.Insert the battery into the charger socket taking care that the battery pack tabs align with the guides in the charger. It should fit easily. Do not force. Check that the battery pack is firmly seated in the charger.

Note. The red LED charge indicator (10) will show that the battery is correctly inserted into the charger cradle and is on charge. The battery charge time is approximately 5 to 7 hours. If the red indicator light does not come ON, check to make sure the battery pack is inserted fully into the charger cradle and the electrical outlet is working properly.

Note. The red light will switch off when the battery is fully charged, indicating the battery is no longer charging.

A further indication for a fully charged battery is the temperature of the pack, which becomes fairly warm as the battery becomes fully charged.

Important Charging Information

WARNING. Never leave a battery on charge once it starts to warm up.

If you wish to charge a second battery pack, pull out the plug from the mains supply and keep it disconnected for at least 15 minutes before attempting to charge the second battery.

To Obtain The Best Life For The Battery

Never allow the drill to come to a complete stand still before recharging. The battery should be placed on charge whenever the battery is noticeably running down or the drill no longer performs a task it previously performed.

Avoid conducting short charges. Make sure that the battery is fully charged every time by charging for the recommended charge time (5–7 hours).Avoid allowing lose items like screws or nails etc. to be stored with battery packs as these or similar items can short battery packs and cause a fire or explosion.

Always unplug the charger when not in use and store in a dry secure place.

Avoid charging or storing your battery in temperatures below -10ºC and above 40ºC.
