Unpacking Battery charging Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely that your GMC Power Tool is faulty or that a part is missing. If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury. IMPORTANT. Before inserting into or removing the battery pack (6) from the battery charger cradle (7) always ensure that the plug is not in the mains socket. ATTENTION.
If you wish to charge a second battery pack, pull out the plug from the mains supply and keep it disconnected for at least 15 minutes before attempting to charge the second battery. To obtain the best life for the battery Never allow the truck to come to a complete stand still before recharging the battery. The battery should be placed on charge whenever the battery is noticeably running down or the truck no longer performs as it previously performed. Avoid conducting short charges.
WARNING. High voltage wires and/or transformers, concrete walls or narrow places may promote erratic behaviour or loss of control of the vehicle as a result of interference. Interference may also be encountered if another remote/radio controlled product or CB radio is operating on a similar frequency. If control of the vehicle is lost due to interference, move to another location to operate the truck. 1. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON position. 2.
