Detachable Cord Sets
The two available detachable cord
sets for your tools are designed to be
interchangeable depending on the
proposed usage.
To attach either of the cords to any of
the tools in this manual, follow the steps
listed below.
1. Rotate the cord locking tab such
that the tab is adjacent to the
“unlocked” symbol, as shown in
Figure 1.
2. Insert the cord, as shown in the
figure and rotate the locking tab until
it is adjacent to the “locked” symbol,
as shown in the figure.
Attach the other end of the cord to
the battery pack in the same way making
sure that you insert the cord into the 24
volt receptacle in the battery pack (see
Figure 2). NOTE: All of the tools
discussed in this manual are designed to
