NOTE: When standby for cooling battery, UC18YRL cools the overheated battery by cooling fan.
(2) Regarding the temperatures of the rechargeable
battery
The temperatures for rechargeable batteries are as
shown in the table below, and batteries that have
become hot should be cooled for a while before being
recharged.

4. Disconnect the charger's power cord from the
receptacle
5. Hold the charger fi rmly and pull out the battery
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after
use, and then keep it.
CAUTION
○ If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has
been left for a long time in a location subject to direct
sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the
pilot lamp of the charger lights up green. In such a case,
fi rst let the battery cool, then start charging.
○ When the pilot lamp fl ikers in red quickly (at 0.2-second
intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in
the charger's battery installation hole. If there are no
foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger
is malfunctioning. Take it to your Authorized Service
Center.
○ Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3 seconds
to confi rm that the battery being charged with UC24YFA
and UC18YRL are taken out, wait for a minimum of 3
seconds before reinserting it to continue charging. If
the battery is reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery
may not be properly charged.

Before using the power tool, charge the battery as follows.
1. Connect the charger power cord to the receptacle
Connecting the power cord will turn on the charger.
2. Insert the battery into the charger
Insert the battery fi rmly while observing its direction,
until it contacts the bottom of the charger (the pilot lamp
lights up).
CAUTION
If the pilot lamp does not light up, pull out the power
cord from the receptacle and check the battery
mounting condition.
About 50 minutes is required to fully charge the battery
at a temperature of about 20°C. The pilot lamp goes off
to indicate that the battery is fully charged.
The battery charging time becomes longer when a
temperature is low or the voltage of the power source is
too low.
When the pilot lamp does not go off even if more
than 120 minutes have elapsed after starting of the
charging, stop the charging and contact your HiKOKI
AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.
CAUTION
If the battery is heated due to direct sunlight, etc.,
just after operation, the charger pilot lamp may not
light up. At that time, cool the battery fi rst, then start
charging.
3. Disconnect the charger power cord from the
receptacle
4. Hold the charger tight and pull out the battery
Regarding electric discharge in case of new
batteries, etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries
and batteries that have not been used for an extended
period is not activated, the electric discharge might be
low when using them the fi rst and second time. This is
a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for
recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries
2 – 3 times.
Malfunction in the battery or
the charger.
Battery overheated. Unable
to charge (Charging will
commence when battery
cools).
