9. Use only the supplied charger when charging your unit. The use
of any other charger could damage the battery pack or create a
hazardous condition.
10.Use only one charger when charging.
11. Do not attempt to open the charger or the unit. There are no
customer serviceable parts inside. Return to any authorized Black
& Decker service center.
12.DO NOT incinerate battery packs even if they are severely
damaged or completely worn out.
13.Do not incinerate the batteries. They can explode in a fire. A small
leakage of liquid from the battery cells may occur under extreme
usage, charging or temperature conditions. This does not indicate
a failure. However, if the outer seal is broken and this leakage
gets on your skin:
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water
for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek immediate medical
attention. MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a 25-35% solution of
potassium hydroxide.
Charging the Battery
THE BATTERY PACK IS NOT FULLYCHARGED AT THE FACTORY.
CHARGE BATTERY PACK FOR AT LEAST 9 HOURS BEFORE USE.
The charger is designed to use standard household 120 volt 60 Hz
power.
1. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt
60 Hz electrical outlet (figure 1).
2. Slide the charger onto the battery pack as
shown in figure 2 and let the battery pack
charge initially for 9 hours. After the initial
charge, under normal usage, your battery
pack should be fully charged in 6 to 9 hours.
2a) During charging the green LED will appear.
2b) When charging is complete the green LED
will go off.
3. Unplug charger, and remove the battery pack.
Place the battery pack into the tool until it
“clicks” into place.
NOTE: To remove the battery pack, press
down on the release button on the back of
the battery pack and slide out (figure 3).
STORAGE RECOMMENDATION
1. Store tool:
a.) with the battery pack removed and on the charger.
b.) in aplacethatiscoolanddryaway fromdirectsunlight and
excessheatorcold.
c.) out of the reach of children.
2. For prolonged storage such as over the winter, the battery pack
should be fully charged and then removed from the charger. It
should be charged again just prior to use.
LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER
It is OK to leave battery packs on charge for long periods of time.
The charger has a maintenance mode which gives the battery pack
enough charge to stay “topped off”. If however, the tool is not
expected to be needed for more than 30 days, unplug the charger
and store battery pack in a cool, dry location. NOTE: A battery pack
will lose its charge when kept off of the charger. If the battery pack
has not been kept on maintenance charge, it may need to be
recharged before use. A battery pack may also lose its charge if left
in a charger that is not plugged into an appropriate AC source.
