2. Plug the charger into any standard
120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet.
IMPORTANT: Do not charge by means
of an engine generator or DC power
source. Use only 120V AC.
3. Slide the charger onto the battery pack
as shown in Figure 3. The LED will
light up, Let the battery pack charge
until red LED turns off. After the ini-
tial charge, under normal usage, your
battery pack should be fully charged in
3 to 9 hours.
CHARGING BATTERY
The battery pack is not fully
charged at the factory. Before
attempting to charge the battery
pack, thoroughly read all Safety
Instructions.
The charger is designed to use standard
household 120 volt 60 Hz power.
1. Plug cord from charger into charger
base. (See Figure 2)
4. Unplug charger. Remove the charger
by sliding off (See Figure 4).
5. Place the battery pack in the tool and be
certain that it is inserted fully into the
tool cavity until it “clicks” into place.

IMPORTANT CHARGING
NOTES
1. After normal usage, your battery
pack should be fully charged in 3 to 9
hours. If the battery pack is run-down
completely, it may take up to 9 hours
to become fully charged. Your battery
pack was sent from the factory in an
uncharged condition. For best perfor-
mance charge battery until red LED
turns off. Allow the battery to cool
down
30 minutes before charging after
using the saw. NOTE: A hot battery
placed in the charger will not charge.
2. DO NOT charge the battery pack in an
air temperature below 40°F (4,5 °C) or
above 105°F (40,5 °C). This is impor-
tant and will prevent serious damage to
the battery pack. Longest life and best
performance can be obtained if battery
pack 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 pack does not charge
properly
• Check current at receptacle by plugging
in a lamp or other appliance.
• Check to see if receptacle is connected
to a light switch which turns power off
when you turn out the lights.
• Move charger and battery pack to a
surrounding air temperature of 40°F
(4,5°C) to 105°F (40,5 °C)
• If the receptacle and temperature are
OK, and you do not get proper charg-
ing contact DESA Power Tools.
5. The battery pack should be recharged
when it fails to produce sufficient
power on jobs which were easily done
previously. DO NOT CONTINUE us-
ing product with its battery pack in a
depleted condition.
6. To prolong battery life, avoid leaving
the battery pack on charger for ex-
tended periods of time (over 30 days
without use). Although overcharging is
not a safety concern, it can signifi cantly
reduce overall battery life.
7. The battery pack 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.
