Battery Pack Operation

The equipment is powered by a lithium-ion battery. The battery 

pack is completely sealed and maintenance free.

Battery Charge Level Indicator

The battery pack is equipped with a push button for checking 

the charge level. Simply press the push button to read off the 

battery charge level from the LEDs of the battery indicator:

•  All 3 level monitoring LEDs are lit: Battery charge level 

 

is high.

•  2 level monitoring LEDs are lit: Battery charge level is 

decreasing. Stop work as soon as possible.

•  1 level monitoring LED is lit: Battery is flat. Stop work 

IMMEDIATELY and charge the battery. Otherwise the 

battery’s service life will be greatly shortened.

NOTE: If the charge level button does not appear to be 

working, place the battery pack on the charger and charge as 

needed.
Immediately after using the battery pack, the charge level 

button may display a lower charge than it will if checked a few 

minutes later. The battery cells “recover” some of their charge  

after resting.
