Charger operation

Charge battery pack
Before using your SKF Battery Driven
Grease Gun for the first time, the battery
pack should be fully charged. If the battery
pack is installed in the grease gun, remove it
and follow charging procedure.
SKF chargers are designed to charge SKF
lithium-ion batteries in 30 to 90 minutes
depending on the battery's state of charge
and temperature.
Charge procedure
Make sure power circuit voltage is the same
as shown on the charger specification plate.
1 Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet
before inserting battery pack.
2 Insert the battery pack into the charger. The
green (charging) light will blink continu-
ously indicating that the charging process
has started.
3 The completion of charge will be indicated by
the green light remaining on continuously.
The pack is fully charged and may be used
at this time.
4 Disconnect charger from power source when
not in use.
DANGER

Do not probe with conductive objects.
120/230 V AC present at charging terminals.
Failure to comply may result in death or
personal injury.

Charger detected a weak or damaged
battery. Stop charging battery. Hot/
cold pack delay.
Charger detected a battery that is
excessively hot or cold.
It automatically starts a hot/cold pack
delay, suspending charging until
temperature of battery has normal-
ized. After this, charger automatically
switches to battery charging mode.
NOTE
Battery temperature will increase during and
shortly after use. Batteries may not accept a
full charge if they are charged immediately
after use. Allow the battery pack to cool to
room temperature before charging for best
results.
NOTE
Vent slots in top and bottom of charger must
not be obstructed. Do not charge battery
when temperature is below 5 °C (40 °F) or
above 40 °C (104 °F).

Important charging notices

Longest life and best performance can be
obtained if the battery is charged when the
air temperature is between 18 and 24 °C
(65 and 75 °F). Do not charge the battery in
an air temperature below 5 °C (40 °F) or
above 40 °C (105 °F). This is important and
will prevent serious damage to the battery.
1 The charger and battery may become warm
to the touch while charging. This is a nor-
mal condition, and does not indicate a
problem.
2 If the battery does not charge properly:
2.1 Check current at receptacle by plugging in
a lamp or other appliance.
2.2 Check to see if the receptacle is connected
to a light switch which turns power off
when you turn out the lights.
2.3 Move charger and battery to a location
where the surrounding air
temperature is between approxi-
mately 18 and 24 °C (65 and 75 °F).
2.4 If charging problems persist, take the
tool, battery and charger to your local
service center.
3 The battery should be recharged when it
fails to produce sufficient power on jobs.
Do not continue to use under these condi-
tions. Follow the charging procedure. You
may also charge a partially used pack
whenever you desire with no adverse
affect on the battery.

4 Under certain conditions, with the
charger plugged into the power supply, the
exposed charging contacts of the charger
can be shorted by foreign material. For-
eign materials of a conductive
nature such as, but not limited to, steel
wool, aluminium foil, or any buildup of
metallic particles should be kept away
from charger cavities. Always unplug the
charger from the power supply when
there is no battery in the cavity. Unplug
charger before attempting to clean.
 WARNING
Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger.
Electric shock may result.
To facilitate cooling of battery pack
after use, avoid placing charger or bat-tery
pack in a warm environment such as a metal
shed or an non-insulated trailer.
Failure to comply may result in serious
injury or death.
