WARNING
other objects besides
studs, such as electrical wiring and
metal/plastic pipes. Contact with a "live" wire
will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and shock the operator.
(Studs are normally spaced 16 or 24 inches
apart and are 1-1/2" wide. Beware of anything
closer together or of a different width.) Always
turn off power when working near electrical
wires.
When the indicator light stops "BLINKING"
(and becomes a steady green light) fast
charging is complete.
When you begin the charging process of the
battery pack, a steady green light could also
mean the battery pack is too hot or too cold.
The purpose of the light is to indicate that the
battery pack is fast-charging. It does not
indicate the exact point of full charge. The light
will stop blinking in less time if the battery pack
was not completely discharged.
When the battery pack is fully charged, unplug
the charger (unless you're charging another
battery pack) and slip the battery pack back
into the tool handle.
