OPERATION
Charge only MILWAUKEE 12, 14.4 and
18 Volt Power Plus battery packs in this
charger. Other types of batteries may
explode causing personal injury and
damage.
When to charge the Power Plus Battery Pack
Charge your battery pack before you use your tool for the first time and when
your tool no longer performs with the power and torque needed for the job.
Never completely discharge the battery pack.
New battery packs reach full loading capacity after 4-5 chargings and
dischargings. Battery packs which have not been used for some time should
be recharged before use.
Standard charging times
Standard charging time is between 5 minutes and 40 minutes. Charging time
varies depending on the charge needed and the type of battery pack being
charged. For example, if the battery pack does not require a full charge, the
charging time will be less than 40 minutes.
Effects of temperature on charging
Battery packs are affected by temperature. The charger will sense battery
temperature and will charge the battery at the most rapid rate when its
temperature is between 50°F (10°C) and 113°F (45°C). When the battery
temperature is outside that range, charging will occur at a slower rate to
prevent damage to battery.
