CHARGING PROCEDURE (

See Figure 11.

)

CHECKING THE CHARGE

If the battery pack does not charge properly:

• Check the current at the power outlet with another tool. Make sure that the outlet is not

turned off.

• Check that the charger contacts have not been shorted by debris or foreign material.

• If the surrounding air temperature is not normal room temperature, move the charger and

battery pack to a location where the temperature is between 50˚F and 100˚F .

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. A fully discharged battery pack will require approximately

90 minutes to fully charge from a discharged state.

1. Plug the charger into an AC power outlet.

2. Insert the battery pack (3) into the charger.

This is a diagnostic charger. The Charger LED Lights will illuminate in specific order to communicate
