Installing or removing battery cartridge
*Always switch off the tool before inser-
tion or removal of the battery cartridge.
*To remove the battery cartridge, with-
draw it from the tool while pressing the
buttons on both sides of the cartridge.
*To insert the battery cartridge, align the
tongue on the battery cartridge with the
groove in the housing and slip
it
into
place. Always insert it all the way until
it
locks in place with
a
little click. If not,
it
may accidentally fall out of the tool, caus-
ing injury to you or someone around you.
Do
not use force when inserting the battery cartridge. If the cartridge does not slide in
easily,
it
is not being inserted correctly.
Charging
*Your new battery cartridge is not
charged. You will need to charge it be-
fore use. Use the high capacity battery
charger Model DC1801 to charge the bat-
tery cartridge.
Plug the high capacity battery charger
into the proper A.C. voltage source. The
charging light will flash in green color.
*Insert the battery cartridge
so
that the
plus and minus terminals on the battery
cartridge are on the same sides as their
respective markings on the high capacity
battery charger. Insert the cartridge fully into the port
so
that
it
rests on the charger port
floor.
When the battery cartridge is inserted, the charging light color will change from green to
red and charging will begin. The charging light
will
remain lit steadily during charging.
When the charging light color changes from red to green, the charging cycle is complete.
The charging time is approximately one hour.
If
you leave the battery cartridge in the charger after the charging cycle is complete, the
charger will switch into its "trickle charge (maintenance charge)" mode which
will
last
approximately
24
hours.
*After charging, unplug the charger from the power source.
CAUTION:
The high capacity battery charger Model DCI 801 is for charging Makita battery cartridge.
Never use
it
for other purposes or for other manufacturer's batteries.
