BATTERY PACK
FIG. 3
Plug charger cord into your standard power
outlet, then insert battery pack into
charger.The charger’s green indicator will
begin to “BLINK”. This indicates that the
battery is receiving a fast charge. Fast-
charging will automatically stop when the
battery pack is fully charged.
When the indicator light stops “BLINKING”
(and becomes a steady green light) fast
charging is complete.
When you begin the charging process of the
battery pack, a steady green light could also
mean the battery pack is too hot or too cold.
The purpose of the light is to indicate that the
battery pack is fast-charging. It does not
indicate the exact point of full charge. The
light will stop blinking in less time if the
battery pack was not completely discharged.
When the battery pack is fully charged,
unplug the charger (unless you're charging
another battery pack) and slip the battery
pack back into the tool handle (Fig.3).
