Switch Trigger - Craftsman 315.116890 Manual Del Operador

If the charger does not charge the battery pack under
normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and
charger to your nearest Sears or other qualified service
center for electrical check.
CHArGinG A COOL BATTerY PACK
 Connect the charger to the power supply. Make sure
the power supply is normal household voltage,
120 volts, 60 Hz, ac only.
 Place the battery pack on a stable surface. Place the
charger over the battery stem.
 Press down on the charger to be sure contacts on
the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the
charger.
 The charge indicator light (LED) will light up red and
glow when the charger is properly connected to power
supply. This light indicates the charger is operating
properly. It will remain on until battery pack is removed
from charger or charger is disconnected from power
supply.
 If both red and orange LED indicators glow, the battery
pack is deeply or completely discharged, and 10-12
hours or longer of charging time is required to fully
recharge battery pack.
nOTe: The orange LED will go out as the battery pack
recovers from the deep discharge. If after 30 minutes
the orange LED is still glowing then the pack may be
defective and should be replaced.
 The battery pack will become slightly warm to the
touch while charging. This is normal and does not
indicate a problem.
 Do not place the charger and battery pack in an area
of extreme heat or cold. They will work best at normal
room temperature.
nOTe: The charger and battery pack should be placed
in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F
but less than 100°F.
 When batteries become fully charged, unplug the
charger from the power supply and remove the battery
pack.
CHArGinG A HOT BATTerY PACK
When using a tool continuously, the batteries in the battery
pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack
cool down for approximately 30 minutes before attempting
to recharge.
nOTe: This situation only occurs when continuous use of a
tool causes the batteries to become hot. It does not occur
under normal circumstances. Refer to "CHArGinG A COOL
BATTerY PACK" for normal recharging of batteries.

See Figure 4.
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled
by a selector located above the switch trigger. With the
drill held in normal operating position, the direction of
rotation selector should be positioned to the left of the
switch trigger for forward drilling. The drilling direction is
reversed when the selector is to the right of the switch
trigger.
Setting the switch trigger in the OFF (center lock) position
helps reduce the possibility of accidental starting when
not in use.
