NOTE
The recharging time may vary according to the ambient temperature and power source voltage.

4. Disconnect the charger’s power cord from the receptacle.

5. Hold the charger firmly and pull out the battery.

NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use, and then keep it.

Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries, etc.

As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and batteries that have not been used for an extended period is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when using them the first and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries 2­-3 times.

How to make the batteries perform longer.

(1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted.
When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.

CAUTION

• If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has been left for a long time in a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the charge indicator lamp of the charger lights for 0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (off for 0.3 seconds). In such a case, first let the battery cool, then start charging.
• When the charge indicator lamp flickers (at 0.2-second intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in the charger’s battery connector. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center.
• Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3 seconds to confirm that the battery being charged with UC18YSL3 is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds before reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery is reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery may not be properly charged.

PRIOR TO OPERATION

WARNING
Before use, check the following. 1 to 3 should be checked before insert the battery.

1. Confirm that the vacuum switch is OFF. (Fig. 3)
If, without knowing that the vacuum switch is ON, the battery is inserted, the appliance will start suddenly, causing unexpected accidents. The vacuum switch will be turned on by pushing “ON” and it will be turned off by returning it to “OFF”. Be sure to check that the vacuum switch is OFF.

2. Order of use for batteries
When two batteries are installed, the battery with the least remaining power is used first until it is empty. Once empty, use is automatically switched over to the other battery.
Use is still possible with a single installed battery.

NOTE
When there is no more remaining power in a battery, immediately recharge the battery for convenient use later.

3. Check the filter
Referring to “3. Filter installation/confirmation” in “HOW TO USE” the filter should be correctly attached.

Insert the plastic bag all the way into both sides of the bag guide “B”. (Fig. 8 -b)
(3) After spreading the plastic bag along the inside of the tank, draw the end of the plastic bag outside the tank. Following the directions on page 16 “Filter installation/ confirmation”, insert the prefilter and dust filter.
At this point attach the prefilter so that the plastic bag is secured by the packing of the prefilter. (Fig. 8-c)

NOTE

• The edge of the plastic bag on the air intake should not extend out of the top of the tank. (See Fig. 8-c)
  If all of the edge of the plastic bag extends out of the top of the tank, the air intake will be blocked, obstructing dust collection.

• When attaching the plastic bag, make sure that the slack portion of the plastic bag does not block the suction port inside the tank. (Fig. 8-d)

3. Filter installation/confirmation

WARNING
Make sure the filters (dust filter and prefilter) are always installed.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the motor.

NOTE
Water cannot be sucked.
(1) Install the filter’s seam so that it is on the other side of the hose air intake. (Fig. 9)
(2) Make sure the packing of the prefilter is hooked on the lip of the tank. Next, insert a filter damper at the bottom of the prefilter. (Fig. 10)
(3) Insert and attach the cloth filter to the dust filter in the direction indicated by the arrow. (Fig. 11)
(4) Match the indication of the “hose side” and insert the dust filter. (Fig. 12)

4. Attach the master nozzles, pipes, etc.
When it is used as a cleaner (Fig. 13)
Connect in order of Hose (id 28 mm × 5 m long), Joint(H), Joint handle, Pipes, and Master nozzle. Connection is done by pressing in the direction of the arrow. The suction mouth for crevices can also be attached depending on the application.

NOTE
Gradually vacuum when cleaning dust scattered across the floor and other locations. Trying to vacuum the dust all at once my result in clogging the hose or the tool itself.

5. Connect power tools (Fig. 6)
Connect Hose (id 28 mm × 5 m long). When operating while connected to another power tool, fix the hose with the included hose belt to avoid entangling the hose with the power tool’s power cord. (Fig. 14)
Bundle the hose at an interval of approximately 1 m.

8. Filter dust removal
The product features a dust removal mechanism that is activated each time the power is switched OFF.
If the suction worsens during operation, switch OFF the power.
The dust tank is probably full if the suction does not recover when you operate the product once again. See “Dump dusts” and follow the instructions to dispose the dust.

9. Dump dusts (Fig. 15)

WARNING

• Be sure to turn off the vacuum switch and disconnect the battery.

• This appliance contains dust that is harmful to health.
  Discharge and maintenance operations (including disposal of the dust collection containers) must only be carried out by qualified specialists wearing appropriate protective clothing and equipment.

• Put on a dust mask.

• Dispose of the vacuumed material in accordance with legal regulations.

• Before removing the head, if the appliance is pushed on its side while the tank contains liquid, the liquid will get inside the motor or switch region, causing an electric shock or motor failure.

CAUTION

• Do not impact the tank, the filter, or the head. Otherwise they will be deformed or damaged.

• Although it is based on the amount of suction of dusts and liquids, dump dusts and liquids in the tank at least once a day and keep the appliance, the filter, etc. clean.
  Otherwise suction power fall, motor failure, bad smell or rusting may be caused.

• Do not hold the clamps when you dump dusts in the tank. Otherwise the clamps may be damaged.

NOTE

• When removing the plastic bag filled with dust from the tank, make sure the bag does not become caught on parts inside the tank.
• Empty the plastic bag regularly so that it does not become excessively filled with dust.
• Do not tilt the tank with accessories inserted in the head or in the tank. Otherwise any part may be damaged.

(1) Remove the clamps (2 pieces) and raise the handle of the head.
(2) Lightly striking the inner side of the prefilter several times, remove dusts attached to the prefilter.
(3) Tilt the tank and dump dusts.
(4) Attach the dust filter, the prefilter, the head, and the clamp in the initial positions.
