ENOperation | Maintenance and storage

If the battery pack does not charge properly:

- check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.

- move charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is

approximately 18-24°C.

- if charging problems persist, take or send the tool, battery pack and charger to your local

service center.

The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs

which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow

the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with

no adverse affect on the battery pack.

Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply, the exposed

charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials

of a conductive nature such as, but no limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup

of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger

from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before

attempting to clean.

Do not immerse charger in water or any other liquid.

WARNING: Don’t allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may result. To

facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in

a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.

WARNING: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of

the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling; do not put it into

further use.
