CAUTION:

1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTION S – This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for battery chargers.
2. Before using the battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using the battery.
3. CAUTION – To reduce the risk of injury, charge only Makita-type rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst to cause personal injury and damage.
4. Non-rechargeable batteries cannot be charged with this battery charger.
5. Use a power source with the voltage specified on the nameplate of the charger.
6. Do not charge the battery cartridge in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
7.  Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
8. Never carry a charger by a cord or yank it to disconnect from the receptacle.
9. After charging or attempting maintenance or cleaning, unplug the charger from the power source. Pull by plug rather than cord whenever disconnecting charger.
10. Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
11. Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord or plug. If the cord or plug is damaged, ask Makita’s authorized service center to replace it in order to avoid a hazard.
12. Do not operate or disassemble the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified serviceman. Incorrect use or reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
13. Do not charge the battery cartridge when the room temperature is BELOW 10°C (50°F) or ABOVE 40°C (104°F). At the cold temperature, charging may not start.
14. Do not attempt to use a step-up transformer, an engine generator or DC power receptacle.
15. Do not allow anything to cover or clog the charger vents.

Charging

1. Plug the battery charger into the proper AC voltage source. The charging light will flash in green color repeatedly.
2. Insert the battery cartridge into the charger until it stops adjusting to the guide of the charger.
3. When the battery cartridge is inserted, the charging light color will change from green to red, and charging will begin. The charging light will keep lighting up steadily during charging. One red charging light indicates charged condition in 0 – 80% and the red and green ones indicate 80 – 100%. The 80% indication mentioned above is an approximate value. The indication may differ according to battery temperature or battery condition.
4. With the finish of the charge, the charging lights will change from red and green ones to green ones.
5. Charging time varies by temperature (10°C (50°F) – 40°C (104°F)) that the battery cartridge is charged at and the conditions of the battery cartridge, such as a battery cartridge that is new or has not been used for a long period of time.
6. After charging, remove the battery cartridge from the charger and unplug the charger.
   Voltage| 10.8 V — 12 V (max.)| Capacity (Ah)
   according to IEC61960| Charging time (Minutes)
   ---|---|---|---
   Number of cells| 3| DC1OSB| DC1OWD
   Li-ion Battery cartridge| BL1016| 2.| 22| 50
   BL1021B| 2.0| 30| 70
   BL1041B| 4.0| 60| 130

NOTE:

• The battery charger is for charging the Makita battery cartridge. Never use it for other purposes or for other manufacturers’ batteries.

• If the charging light may flash in red color, the battery condition is as below, and charging may not start.
  – Battery cartridge from a just-operated tool or battery cartridge that has been left in a location exposed to direct sunlight for a long time.
  – Battery cartridge that has been left for a long time in a location exposed to cold air.
  When the battery cartridge is too hot, charging does not begin until the battery cartridge temperature reaches the degree at which charging is possible.

• If the charging light flashes alternately in green and red color changing is not possible. The terminals on the charger or battery cartridge are clogged with dust or the battery cartridge is worn out or damaged.

Cooling system (only for DC10SB)

• This charger is equipped with a cooling fan for a heated battery in order to enable the battery to prove its own performance. The sound of cooling air comes out during cooling, which means no trouble on the charger.

• The yellow light will flash as a warning in the following cases.
  – Trouble with the cooling fan
  – Incomplete cool down of battery, such as being clogged with dust The battery can be charged in spite of the yellow warning light.
  But the charging time will be longer than usual in this case.
  Check the sound of the cooling fan, vent on the charger, and battery, which can be sometimes clogged with dust.

• The cooling system is in order although no sound of the cooling fan comes out if the yellow warning light will not flash.

• Always keep clean the vent on the charger and battery for cooling.

• The products should be sent to repair or maintenance if the yellow warning light will frequently flash.

Wall mounting

Warning:

• Make sure to use two screws for hanging the charger on the wall, and anchor the charger on the wall with another screw. Otherwise, the charger may fall and cause serious injury.
• Always be sure that the charger is unplugged and all the batteries are removed from the charger before performing wall mounting work.
• Follow the steps instructed in this manual, and complete the whole procedure at once. The charger may fall and cause injury or damage if you stop the work in half.
• Check the tightness of the screws on regular basis. Otherwise, the charger may fall because of a loose screw.
• Clean the terminal parts of the charger on regular basis with an air duster etc.

Caution:

• Carefully choose a stable wall for mounting the charger. Make sure there is no hindrance to mounting work or charging operation. The gross weight of the charger and battery reaches approximately 1.1 kg (2.43lbs) (DC10SB) / 0.8 kg (1.76lbs) (DC10WD), providing sufficient reinforcement for the wall if necessary.

Things you need to prepare:
– Two screws – for hanging the charger.
Screw size: 4mm x more than 20mm (5/32” x more than 13/16”).
Screw head size: ø9.0mm or less and less than 3.5mm thickness. (ø11/32” x 1/8”).
– One screw (4mm (5/32”) x more than 25mm (1”)) – for anchoring the charger.
– One more screw (only for DC10SB) (4mm (5/32”) x more than 40mm (1-9/16”)) – for supporting the charger.
– Tools – for tightening screws.
You can mount the charger on the wall in either horizontal or vertical directions. (Fig. 1&2)

1. Fix the two screws for hanging on the wall as illustrated. (Fig. 3)
2. Hang the charger with the screws fixed in step 1.
3.  Mount the charger on the wall by tightening the anchor screw completely. (Fig. 4)

(For DC10SB it is needed one more screw for supporting the charger on the wall.)
