CHARGING PROCEDURE
NOTE: The battery is not shipped fully charged. It is recommended to fully charge before first
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.

  1. Plug the charger into an AC power outlet.
  2. Insert the battery pack into the charger.

This is a diagnostic charger. The Charger LED Lights will illuminate in specific order to communicate the current battery status. They are as follows:

FIG 5 Charger LED Lights

False defect note:
When the battery is inserted into the charger and the status LED blinks RED, remove the battery from the charger for 1 minute, then reinsert. If the status LED blinks GREEN, then the battery is properly charging. If the status LED is still blinking RED, remove the battery and unplug the charger for 1 minute. After 1 minute, plug in the charger and reinsert the battery. If the status LED blinks GREEN, then the battery is properly charging. If the status LED is still blinking RED, the battery is defective and needs to be replaced.
