Be sure the battery is fully seated in the charger. The red “Charging Indicator” light
will come on indicating that there is contact between the battery and charger. The
light will stay on as long as the battery is in the charger and the charger is plugged
into a working outlet. It WILL NOT flash, go out or change to a different color when
the charging cycle is complete.
IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES
1. After normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in 3 hours or less. If the
power pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 9 hours to become fully
charged. Your power pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition.
Before attempting to use it, it must be charged for at least 9 hours.
2. DO NOT charge the power pack in an air temperature below 40°F or above 105°F.
This is important and will prevent serious damage to the power pack. Longest life and
best performance can be obtained if the power pack is charged when the air
temperature is about 75°F.
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal
condition and does not indicate a problem.
4. If the power pack does not charge properly—(1) Check current at receptacle by
plugging in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to
a light switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger
and power pack to a surrounding air temperature of 40°F to 105°F. (4) If the
receptacle and temperature are OK, and you do not get proper charging, take or
send the power pack and charger to your local Black & Decker service center. See
Tools Electric in yellow pages.
5. The power pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs
which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using saw with its power
pack in a depleted condition.
6. To prolong power pack life, avoid leaving the power pack on charge for more than 8
hours. Although overcharging is not a safety concern, it can significantly reduce overall
power pack life.
7. When the battery is inserted into the charger, the red “Charging Indicator” light will
