CHECKING THE CHARGE

If the battery pack does not charge properly:

• Check the current at the power outlet with another tool. Make sure that the outlet is not

turned off.

• Check that the charger contacts have not been shorted by debris or foreign material.

• If the surrounding air temperature is not normal room temperature, move the charger and

battery pack to a location where the temperature is between 45 ˚F and 104˚F .

NOTE: The battery is not shipped fully charged. It is recommended to fully charge before first use

to ensure that maximum run time can be achieved. This lithium-ion battery will not develop a

memory and may be charged at any time. A fully discharged battery pack will require approximately

8 hours to fully charge from a discharged state.
