Charging the battery
The battery needs to be charged before first use and
whenever it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that
were easily done before. When charging the battery for the
first time, or after prolonged storage, it will only accept an
80% charge. After several charge and discharge cycles, the
battery will attain full capacity. The battery may become
warm while charging; this is normal and does not indicate a
problem.
Warning! Do not charge the battery at ambient
temperatures below 10°C or above 40°C. Recommended
charging temperature: approx. 24 °C.
Charging with the charger receptacle (fig. C)
To charge the battery (3), remove it from the appliance
and slide the charger receptacle (6) onto the battery.

After normal use, a charging time of 3 hours will provide
sufficient power for most applications. However, further
charging for up to 6 hours could significantly increase the
use time, depending on the battery and charging conditions.
