Charging

1.NOTE: The Battery Pack (28) requires charging before first use. The first charge requires 5 hours charge time prior to initial use of the Cordless Drill.

2.Note: Always switch to a fresh battery when tool performance begins to diminish. Severe heat is most destructive to a battery; the more heat generated, the faster the battery loses power. A battery that gets too hot can be permanently damaged. Never over-discharge a battery by using the tool even after tool performance is decreasing. Never attempt to discharge a tool’s battery by continuing to pull the tool trigger. When tool performance begins to diminish, stop the tool, recharge the battery and use the fresh battery for optimal performance.

3.When the Battery Pack requires recharging, a 3-5 hour charge allows the tool to operate at full power.

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

5.Depress both buttons at the rear of each side of the Battery Pack and slide unit back to detach from the Drill. Plug Battery Pack into Adapter (30) the same way it plugs into the Cordless Drill, then slide Adapter onto Charger (29), and plug the Charger into the nearest 120 volt, grounded, electrical outlet.

6.While charging, the Battery Pack, Charger, and Adapter may become warm to the touch. This is normal, and does not indicate a problem.

7.Once the Battery Pack is fully charged, disconnect the Charger from the electrical outlet. Disconnect the Adapter and the Battery Pack from the Charger.
