CHARGING BATTERY PACK (1 HOUR CHARGER)
Plug charger cord into your standard power
outlet. Before inserting battery pack, remove
protective cap, then insert battery pack into
charger (Fig. 8).
The charger's green indicator will begin to
"BLINK". This indicates that the battery is
receiving a fast charge. Fast-charging will
automatically stop when the battery pack is
fully charged.
When the indicator light stops "BLINKING"
(and becomes a steady green light) fast
charging is complete.
When you begin the charging process of the
battery pack, a steady green light could also
mean the battery pack is too hot or too cold.

1. The battery pack accepts only about 80%
of its maximum capacity with its first few
charge cycles. However, after the first few
charge cycles, the battery will charge to full
capacity.
2. The charger was designed to fast charge
the battery only when the battery
temperature is between 40˚F (4˚C) and 105˚F
(41˚C).
3. A substantial drop in operating time per
charge may mean that the battery pack is
nearing the end of its life and should be

The purpose of the light is to indicate that the
battery pack is fast-charging. It does not

light will stop blinking in less time if the
battery pack
discharged.
When the battery pack is fully charged,
unplug the charger (unless you're charging
another battery pack) and slip the battery
pack back into the tool handle.
To prevent fire or injury when batteries are
not in tool or charger, always place
protective cap onto end of battery pack.

run your tool down until it is fully discharged
before storing your battery pack. After a long
period of storage, the capacity at first
recharge will be lower. Normal capacity will be
restored in two or three charge/discharge
cycles. Remember to unplug charger during
storage period.
5. If battery does not charge properly:
a. Check for voltage at outlet by
plugging in some other electrical device.
b. Check to see if outlet is connected to
a light switch which turns power "off" when
