Refresh charging
Refreshing adapter (optional accessory) can refresh an
inactive battery cartridge.
• Refresh charging should be done once a week.
• When you charge a new battery cartridge or a battery
cartridge that has not been used for a long time, it may
not accept a full charge. In this case, refresh charging
must be done. The battery cartridge may decrease the
tool performance, because the chemical substance of
the battery cartridge is inactive.
Checking the remaining battery capacity (Fig. 3)
For BH9020A and BH9033A
When charging
When the charging begins, the first (far left) indicating
lamp begins to flicker. Then, as charging proceeds, the
other lamps light, one after the other, to indicate the bat-
tery capacity.
When using
When the tool is switched on, the lamps will light after
2 seconds to indicate the remaining battery capacity.
When the tool is switched off, the light goes out.
If the battery has not been used for a long time, or is
needed refresh charging, the orange lamp begins to
flicker.
Use Makita refreshing adapter to refresh the battery.
CAUTION:
A battery cartridge extracted from the charger that has
been unplugged with the battery cartridge inserted does
not indicate the battery capacity due to its protective
function even if the tool is switched on after the battery
insertion into the tool. At this time, recharge it for about
five seconds before use.
NOTE:
Please contact Makita Authorized Service Center if the
warning lamp of the battery cartridge does not light up
when using or charging.
