for a long time, the battery pack may be-
come damaged. Recharge the battery im-
mediately when it has been discharged.

Do not leave the battery pack on the charg-

er. If the above is not observed, a weak cur-
rent will continue to flow and the battery
pack may become damaged. When re-
charging is complete, always remove the
battery pack from the charger.

BATTERY PACK BREAKDOWNS

If the following conditions occur, bring the Bat-
tery and Charger to your dealer.
• The red charging lamp does not flash when the

charger plug is inserted into main power
source outlet (When the Battery pack is not in-
serted in the charger.)

• Neither the red charging lamp nor the orange

standby lamp lights or flashes when the Bat-
tery pack is inserted in the charger.

• The orange standby lamp does not change to

the red charging lamp even after more than 1
hour.

• The red charging lamp does not change from

constant to flashing light even after more than
90 minutes. (except at low temperatures)

SERVICE LIFE OF BATTERY PACK

If any condition described below is observed, the
battery pack is at the end of its service life. Re-
place it with a new one.
• Although the battery pack has been properly

charged (fully charged), a great drop in operat-
ing time has been noticed.

Do not charge the battery pack when this hap-
pens. If the motor's rotational speed slows
down, the power of the battery pack is consid-
ered to be nearly depleted. Using the tool
more will cause it to overdischarge, resulting
in a shortened service life of the battery pack
and also in functional trouble of the tool's
main body.

Do not use a battery pack when its service life
is finished.
This will cause functional trouble in the tool's
main body. Also charging a battery pack that
is out of service life will lead to functional trou-
ble in the battery charger.

RECYCLING A LI-ION BATTERY

The MAX battery pack uses a Li-ion battery, it
may be illegal to dispose of this battery into the
municipal waste system. Check with your local
solid waste officials for details in your area for re-
cycling options or proper disposal.

When disposing of the battery pack, make
sure to put a pack cap on its terminal (with in-
sulating tape securing it) to prevent short cir-
cuits.
