CHARGING PROCEDURE
NOTE : Before using the tool, read the instruction book carefully
CHARGING YOUR BATTERY PACK
WARNING : The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together so do not attempt to use any other devices. 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.
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.
BEFORE USING YOUR CORDLESS TOOL
Your battery pack is UNCHARGED and you must charge once before use. When you
charge the new battery or one which has not been used for long periods of
time, it may not reach full charge until after you have discharged it fully in
use and recharge it several times.
HOW TO CHARGE YOUR BATTERY PACK
Connect the battery charger to the power supply. Then, push battery into charger base (2)until you hear a sound “click”, connection is finished and the light (1) will turn green flashing to show charging has started, until the battery is fully charged. A discharged battery at normal ambient temperature will take approximately 5 hours to reach full charge. When charging is completed, unplug the charger and remove the battery pack.
NOTE : This charger is designed to detect some problems that can arise with battery pack. (see table below)
NOTE:
-
The charger will not automatically switch off when the battery is full charged. Do not leave your battery on charge continuously. This may damage the battery cells. Do not overcharge any batteries.
WARNING : After long usage the battery will become hot. Let the hot battery cool down for at least 0.5 hour before recharging. -
Do not charge a battery when it too hot or the air temperature is blew 4oC.
-
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 is charged for the first time and after prolonged storage, the battery will only accept approximately 60% charge. However, after several charge and discharge cycles the battery will accept a 100% charge.
-
It must be charged for 12 hours before using the first time!
-
When charging is completed, unplug the charging plug form the wall socket.
WARNING : Shock hazard. Don’t allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may be the result.
CAUTION : Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.
STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS
- The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.
- If the battery pack will not be used for a long time, it is best to make sure it is properly stored. Make sure it is half or fully charged before storing. The battery should be stored in an area that maintains a temperature of approximately 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). Long term exposures to hot temperatures are hazardous to the battery packs life. Additionally, the battery pack should be charged at least once a year.
