OPERATION
CHARGING PROCEDURE
NOTE: The battery is not shipped fully charged. It is recommended to fully charge before rst use to
ensure that maximum run time can be achieved. This lithium-ion battery will not develop a memory
and may be charged at any time.
Low Voltage Charging:
If the battery has been stored with little to no charge for a long period of time, the charger will go
into recovery mode, which will take 20 hrs to fully charge the battery. This will enhance the life of the
battery. Once it is fully charged, the next charge will return to standard charging.
A fully discharged battery pack will require approximately 60 minutes (2Ah) to fully charge from a
discharged state.
– Plug the charger (1) into an AC power outlet.
– Insert the battery pack (2) into the charger (1).
This is a diagnostic charger. The charger LED Lights (3) will illuminate in specic order to
communicate the current battery status. They are as follows:
