A fault has occurred when all three LEDS flash . To correct, simply restart the circuit.

!WARNING Stud finders can detect other objects besides

studs, such as electrical wiring and metal/plastic pipes. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

(Studs are normally spaced 16 or 24 inches apart and are 1-1/2" wide. Beware of anything closer together or of a different width.) Always turn off power when working near electrical wires.

CHARGING BATTERY PACK (3 HOUR CHARGER)

Plug charger cord into your standard power outlet. Before inserting battery pack, remove protective cap, then insert battery pack into charger (Fig. 7).

The charger’s green light (Fig. 8), will turn “ON”. The green light remains ‘‘ON’’ as long as charger is plugged in, and does not shut off.

After normal usage, the battery pack requires approximately 3 hours or less charging time to become fully charged. If the battery pack

is run-down completely, it may require up to 5 hours charging time to become fully charged.

When the battery pack is fully charged, unplug the charger (unless you're charging another battery pack) and slip the battery pack back into the tool handle.

To prevent fire or injury when batteries are not in tool or charger, always place protective cap onto end of battery pack.
