Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any
way. Take it to an authorized service center.
•
Do not disassemble the charger; take it to an
authorized service center when service or repair
is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of
electric shock, electrocution or fire.
•
The charger is designed to operate on standard
120V household electrical power. Do not attempt to
use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the
vehicular charger.
•
Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such as, but
not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool,
aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic particles
should be kept away from the charger connector.
•
Always unplug the charger from the power supply
when there is no battery being charged.

4. The LEDs will turn off upon completion of charging.
nOTE: While charging, the charger may get warm, this is
perfectly normal and safe. It is safe to leave the appliance
connected to the charger indefinitely. The charger
automatically reduces power consumption when charging
is complete.

hot/Cold Delay
When the charger detects a battery that is too hot or
too cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay,
suspending charging until the battery has reached an
appropriate temperature. The charger then automatically
switches to the charging mode. This feature ensures
maximum battery life.
A cold battery may charge at a slower rate than a warm battery.
The hot/cold pack delay will be indicated by all 3 LEDs
continuously flashing a short ON followed by a longer ON.
Once the battery has reached an appropriate temperature,
the charger will resume the charging procedure.
Electronic Protection System
Li‑Ion tools are designed with an Electronic Protection
System that will protect the battery against overloading,
overheating or deep discharge. The tool will automatically
turn off and the battery will need to be recharged.
Important Charging Notes
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if
the battery pack is charged when the air temperature
is between 65 °F – 75 °F (18 ° C– 24 °C). DO NOT charge
when the battery pack is below +40 °F (+4.5 °C), or
above +104 °F (+40 °C). This is important and will
prevent serious damage to the battery.
2. The charger and tool may become warm to the touch
while charging. This is a normal condition and does
not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of
the tool after use, avoid placing the charger or tool
in a warm environment such as in a metal shed or an
uninsulated trailer.
3. If the battery does not charge properly:
a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp
or other appliance.
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light
switch which turns power off when you turn out
the lights.
c. If charging problems persist, take the tool and charger
to your local service center.
4. You may charge a partially used battery whenever you
desire with no adverse effect on the battery.
Charger Cleaning Instructions
WARNING: Shock hazard. Disconnect the charger
from the AC outlet before cleaning. Soiling may be
removed from the exterior of the charger using a cloth
or soft non‑metallic brush. Do not use water or any
cleaning solutions.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR
FUTURE USE
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and keep hands away from
the switch before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start‑up can cause injury.
