FOREWORD
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The Porter-Cable Cordless Reciprocating Saw is designed for cutting wood up to
12" thick, metal up to 3/4" thick, and various other materials (plastics, fiberglass,
hard rubber, etc).
The Model 8924 Charger is equipped with a diagnostic system that automatically
checks the battery pack each time a pack is inserted into the charger. If no
problems are found, the charger will automatically switch to “Fast Charge” mode
as described in "NORMAL CHARGING".
Make sure that the power circuit voltage is the same as that shown on the
charger specification plate. Connect the charger to the power source. The red
and green lights will flash once to indicate that power is connected properly and
the charger is ready for operation.
The charger indicator lights will indicate the following problems:
1. If the green light flashes slowly after battery pack is inserted in charger,
the battery pack temperature is either too high or too low for charging.
If left alone, the charger will continue to monitor the battery pack
temperature and will begin charging when the temperature reaches an
acceptable level.
2. If the red light flashes continuously, the battery pack has failed (pack is
not chargeable and requires replacement).
As a battery pack approaches the discharged state, you will notice a sharp drop
in tool performance. When the tool is unable to perform, recharge the battery
pack. Recharging the battery pack before this condition is reached will reduce
the total work life of the pack. Discharging the pack beyond this point can
damage the pack.
NOTE: Battery temperature will increase during and shortly after use. Batteries
may not accept a full charge if they are charged immediately after use. Allow the
battery pack to cool to room temperature before charging for best results.
