Figure 1		Button

1.Insert the Battery Pack (1) into the Bat- tery Socket (3).

2.Plug the Charger (2) cord into the Bat- tery Socket (3), then plug the Charger into an appropriate AC 120V, 60 Hz power outlet. The red LED light on the Battery Socket will activate, indicating the Battery Pack is charging.

3.The initial charge time is 3-5 hours, after which the Battery Pack should be re-

moved from the Battery Socket/Charger assembly.

Note: When the Charger is plugged into a power outlet and connected to the Bat- tery Socket without a Battery Pack at- tached, the LED will flash from green to red, and then off. When the Battery Pack is inserted into the Battery Socket the LED changes to a solid red. The light changes to green when the Battery Pack is fully charged. Do not charge for over 5 hours. Do not place the Charger on carpeting or near flammables.

4.After each subsequent use, 3 hours of charging time is needed for the Battery Pack to be fully charged. However, the Battery Pack can be left to charge for 5 hours to ensure longer running time in the tools.

5.If the Battery Pack will not hold a full charge, discharge batteries by keeping the tool in the “ON” position until tool slows or the light begins to dim. Do not completely discharge batteries. Remove Battery Pack from tool, allow it to cool, and charge for 3-5 hours, making sure not to exceed 5 hours of charging time.

6.When not charging, unplug Charger from outlet and store in secure location.

7.The batteries contained in the Battery Pack are nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd). Do not dispose of Ni-Cd batteries in house- hold waste.

8.Follow all local regulations regarding the proper disposal of Ni-Cd batteries.

9.WARNING! If the Charger cord is damaged, it must be replaced only by a qualified service technician.
