Charging the Battery
THE BATTERY IS NOT FULLY CHARGED AT THE FACTORY.
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THE BATTERY
THOROUGHLY READ ALL OF THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
The charger is designed to use standard household 120 volt 60 Hz
power.
1. Ptug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical
outlet. NOTE: Do not charge by means
of an engine generator or DC power
source. Use only 120V AC.
2. Slide the charger onto the battery as
shown in figure 1 and let the battery
charge initially for 9 hours. After the , , initial charge, under normal usage, your ,.... ..
battery should be fully charged in 3 to 6 _\_ _ _
hours.
3. Unplug charger, and remove the battery.
Important Charging Notes
1. After normal usage, your battery should be fully charged in 3 to
6 hours. If the battery is run-down completely, it may take up to
9 hours to become fully charged. Your battery was sent from the
factory not fully charged. Before attempting to use it, it must be
charged for at least 9 hours.
2. DO NOT charge the battery in an air temperature below 40°F
(4,5 °C) or above 105°E(40,5 °C) This is important and wilt
prevent serious damage to the battery. Longest life and best
performance can be obtained if battery is charged when air
temperature is about 75°F.(24°C).
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to
touch. This is a normal condition and does not indicate a
problem.
4. If the battery does not charge property--(1) Check current at
receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check
to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns
power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and
battery to a surrounding air temperature of 40°F (4,5 °C) to
105°F.(40,5 °C) (4) If the receptacle and temperature are OK,
and you do not get proper charging, take or send the battery
and charger to your local Black & Decker service center. See
Tools Electric in yellow pages.
5. The battery should be recharged when it fails to produce
sufficient power on jobs which were easily done previously. DO
NOT CONTINUE using product with its battery in a depleted
condition.
6. To prolong battery life, avoid leaving the battery on charge for
extended periods of time (over 30 days without use). Although
overcharging is not a safety concern, it can significantly reduce
overall battery life.
7. The battery will reach optimum performance after being cycled 5
times during normal usage. There is no need to run the batteries
down completely before recharging. Normal usage is the best
method of discharging and recharging the batteries
