Battery packs for this tool are shipped in a low charge

should charge them until the green LED on the front of the
charger comes on.
CHARGING A BATTERy PACK
See Figure 2, page 8.
If the charger does not charge the battery pack under normal
circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to
your nearest Authorized Service Center for electrical check.

Use battery pack only with the recommended charger.
 Connect the charger to the power supply. Make sure the
power supply is normal household voltage, 120 volts,
AC only, 60 Hz.

snap into place and the battery pack is secured in the
charger before beginning operation.

 Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts on
the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the

 When batteries become fully charged, unplug the charger
from the power supply and remove the battery pack.
 To remove the battery pack from the charger, depress
the latches on each side of the battery pack.

If the battery pack is below normal temperature range, the
red LED will begin flashing and the green LED will be off.
When the battery warms to a temperature of more than
32°F, the charger will automatically begin charge mode.
