Battery and Charging System

Battery and Charging System

The Paslode Cordless tools come with a recharge- able battery and its own charging system. This charging system is the only one that will work with the Pasldoe batteries (either round or oval ). The first step in preparing a new tool for operation is to fully charge the battery. New batteries are shipped discharged and must be charged prior to first use. Batteries will take 5 minutes to 2 hours (time will be dependant on the amount of discharge of the battery) to recharge.

Charging Instructions

1.Remove wall mount unit with the orange label from the tool case and plug into a 120V AC outlet. Set orange charger on a stable surface and insert wall mount unit’s plug into plug receptacle on the back of the charger (see picture).
