CHARGING PROCEDURE
NOTE: Before using the tool, read the
instruction book carefully.
BEFORE PUTTING INTO OPERATION
A) CHARGING THE BATTERY
The battery charger supplied is matched to the Li-
ion battery listed in this manual. Do not use another
battery charger.
The Li-ion battery is protected against deep
discharging. When the battery is empty, the machine
is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The
tool holder no longer rotates.
In a warm environment or after heavy use, the
battery pack may become too hot to permit
charging. Allow time for the battery to cool down
before recharging.
When the battery pack is charged for the first time
and after prolonged storage, the battery pack will
accept a 100% charge after several charge and
discharge cycles.
B) TO REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK (SEE FIG A1)
Depress the Battery Pack Release Button firmly first
and then slide the Battery Pack out from your tool.
C) HOW TO CHARGE YOUR BATTERY PACK (SEE
FIG A2)
CHARGING PROCEDURE
1)Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet. The
light will be green.
2)Slide the battery pack into the charger, the light
will turn to red to indicate the charging process has
started.
3)When charging is completed, the light will turn
to green. The pack is now fully charged, unplug the
charger and remove the battery pack.
Warning:
When battery charge runs out after
continuous use or exposure to direct sunlight or
heat, allow time for the tool to cool down before re-
charging to achieve the full charge.
CHARGING INDICATOR
This charger is designed to detect some problems
that can arise with battery packs. Indicator lights
indicate problems (see table below). If this occurs,
insert a new battery pack to determine if the charger
is OK. If the new battery charges correctly, then the
original pack is defective and should be returned to
a service center or recycling service center. If the
new battery pack displays the same problem as the
original Battery Pack, have the charger tested at an
authorized service center.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE –
Problems and Solutions
1. I CANNOT FIT THE BATTERY INTO THE BATTERY
CHARGER. WHY?
1) Check if the charger and the battery pack are
specifically designed for working together.
2. REASONS FOR DIFFERENT CHARGING TIMES
1) If the battery pack is only partly discharged it may
be re-charged in less than 3 hours.
2) If the battery pack and ambient temperature are
very cold then re-charging may take longer.
3) If the battery pack is very hot you must remove
your battery pack from the charger and allow your
battery pack to cool first to ambient temperature
and then recharging can be started.
