[Battery Charger]
Charging
CAUTION:
• If the temperature of the battery pack
falls approximately below −10°C (14°F),
charging will automatically stop to prevent
degradation of the battery.
• The ambient temperature range is
between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F).
If the battery pack is used when the
battery temperature is below 0°C (32°F),
the tool may fail to function properly.
• When charging a cool battery pack
(below 0°C (32°F)) in a warm place,
leave the battery pack at the place and
wait for more than one hour to warm up
the battery to the level of the ambient
temperature.
• Cool down the charger when
charging more than two battery packs
consecutively.
• Do not insert your fi ngers into contact
hole, when holding charger or any other
occasions.
To prevent the risk of fi re or damage to the
battery charger.
• Do not use power source from an engine
generator.
• Do not cover vent holes on the charger
and the battery pack.
• Unplug the charger when not in use.
NOTE:
Your battery pack is not fully charged at the
time of purchase. Be sure to charge the
battery before use.
Battery charger
1. Plug the charger into the AC outlet.
NOTE:
Sparks may be produced when the plug
is inserted into the AC power supply, but
this is not a problem in terms of safety.
2. Select the Li-ion Battery pack dock
cover. Slide the battery dock cover to
allow insertion.
3. Insert the battery pack firmly into the
charger. (Fig. 16)

4. During charging, the charging lamp will
be lit. When charging is completed, an
internal electronic switch will
automatically be triggered to prevent
overcharging.
• Charging will not start if the battery
pack is warm (for example,
immediately after heavy-duty
operation). The orange standby lamp
will be flashing until the battery cools
down. Charging will then begin
automatically.
5. The charge lamp (green) will flash slowly
once the battery is approximately 80%
charged. (Li-ion Battery Only)
6. When charging is completed, the
charging lamp in green color will turn off.
7. If the temperature of the battery pack is
0˚C or less, charging takes longer to
fully charge the battery pack than the
standard charging time. Even when the
battery is fully charged, it will have
approximately 50% of the power of a
fully charged battery at normal operating
temperature.
8. Consult an authorized dealer if the
charging lamp (green) does not turn off.
9. If a fully charged battery pack is inserted
into the charger again, the charging
lamp lights up. After several minutes, the
charging lamp in green color will turn off.
