For Appropriate use of
Battery pack
Ni-MH Battery pack (EY9251)
Charge the Ni-MH battery fully before
storage in order to ensure a longer ser-
vice life.
The ambient temperature range is be-
tween 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F).
If the battery pack is used when the bat-
tery temperature is below 0°C (32°F), the
tool may fail to function properly. In that
case, charge the battery until charging is
completed for appropriate functioning of
the battery.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects like: paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other
small metal objects that can make a con-
nection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause sparks, burns or a fire.
When operating with a Ni-MH bat-
tery pack, make sure the place is well-
ventilated.
Battery Pack Life
The rechargeable batteries have a lim-
ited life. If the operation time becomes
extremely short after recharging,
replace the battery pack with a new one.
NOTE:
Use under extremely hot or cold
conditions will reduce operating
capacity per charge.
Charging
NOTE:
When you charge the battery pack
for the first time, or after prolonged
storage, charge it for about 24
hours to bring the battery up to full
capacity.

NOTE:
Sparks may be produced when the

3. During charging, the charging lamp will
be lit.
When charging is completed, an inter
-
nal electronic switch will automatically
be triggered to prevent overcharging.
Charging will not start if the battery
pack is warm (for example, immedi
-
ately after heavy-duty operation).
The orange standby lamp will be lit
until the battery cools down. Charging
will then begin automatically.
4. When charging is completed, the
charging lamp will start flashing quickly
in green color.
5. When in any of the conditions that
battery pack is too cool, or the bat
-
tery pack has not been used for a
long time, the charging lamp is lit. In
this case, charging takes longer to
fully charge the battery pack, than the
standard charging time.
If a fully charged battery pack is insert-
ed into the charger again, the charging
lamp light up. After several minutes,
the charging lamp may flash quickly to
indicate the charging is completed.
6. If the charging lamp does not light im-
mediately after the charger is plugged
in, or if after the standard charging
time the lamp does not go off, consult
an authorized dealer.
