-14-
Plug charger cord into your standard power
outlet. Before inserting battery pack, remove
protective cap, then insert battery pack into
charger (Fig. 11).
The charger’s green indicator light 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.
The battery pack may be used even though
the light may still be blinking. The light may
require more time to stop blinking depending
on temperature. When you begin the
charging process of the battery pack, a
steady red light could also mean the battery
pack is too hot or too cold.
The purpose of the green 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 charging several batteries in
sequence, the charge time may slightly
increase.
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.
To prevent fire or injury when batteries are
not in tool or charger, always place protective
cap onto end of battery pack.

INDICATORS, SYMBOLS AND MEANING
If the indicator lights are “OFF”, the charger
is not receiving power from power supply
outlet.
If the green indicator light is “ON”,
the charger is plugged in but the
battery pack is not inserted, or the
battery pack is fully charged and is being
trickle charged, or the battery pack is too hot
or cold for fast-charging. The charger will
switch to trickle charge, until a suitable
temperature is reached, at which time the
charger will switch automatically to fast-
charging.
If the green indicator light is
“BLINKING”, the battery pack is
being fast-charged. Fast-charging
will automatically stop when the battery pack
is fully charged.
