CHARGING PROTEAM
LITHIUM ION BATTERY
PACKS
Lithium Ion batteries deliver fade-free
power for their entire run time. 18-volt
Lithium Ion tools will not gradually lose
power due to decreasing battery charge.
Instead, power from the battery pack
will drop from full to zero once the
full charge has been drained from the
battery. Once this happens, recharging
of the battery is required.
It is not necessary to drain the battery
pack completely before recharging.
BATTERY PROTECTION
FEATURES
ProTeam 18-volt Lithium Ion batteries
are designed with features that protect
the Lithium Ion cells and maximize
battery life. Under some operating
conditions, these built-in features may
cause the battery and the tool it is
powering to act differently from nickel-
cadmium batteries.
During some applications, the battery
electronics may signal the battery to
shut down, and cause the tool to stop
running. To reset the battery and tool,
turn the switch off and then back on to
resume normal operation.
If turning the switch off and on does
not reset the battery and tool, the
battery pack is depleted and needs to
be recharged.
