Charging the battery pack

J

Before cleaning or servicing the charging station

or the battery pack always ensure that the plug
is not in the mains socket.

Note! A new battery pack, or one that has not
been in use for an extended period, must be charged
up before the first / renewed usage.

The battery pack attains its full capacity after ca.
3-5 charging cycles.

m CAUTION! Always ensure the plug is removed

from the mains socket before inserting a battery pack
into, or removing one from, the charging station.

J

Never charge the battery pack if the ambient

temperature is less than 10 °C or greater than
40 °C.

1. Insert the battery pack

8

into the quick-

charger

11

(see Fig. C).

2. Insert the power plug into the socket. The now

glowing red charging control LED

13

indicates

that the charging process has begun. The red
charging control LED

extinguishes as soon

as the battery pack is fully charged.

3. The green charging control LED

12

signals to

you that the charging process is complete and
the battery pack

8

is ready for service.

J

Never charge the battery pack for a second time

immediately after a fast charging process has
been completed. This can give rise to the battery
pack becoming overcharged and to a reduced
service life of the battery and charging station.

j

Switch the charger off for at least 15 minutes

between two successive charging procedures.
Remove the power plug from the wall socket.

automatic spindle lock

and is fitted with an

enclosed keyless chuck incorporating the latest
technology from

After you have inserted the required bit and fixed it
in place by turning the chuck , you can immedi-
ately continue working. The spindle lock releases
itself automatically when the motor is started (by
