Cautions for the Li-ion Battery
Pack
• If the temperature of the battery
pack falls approximately below
−10°C (14°F), charging will auto-
matically stop to prevent degrada-
tion of the battery.
Common Cautions for the Li-
ion/Ni-MH/Ni-Cd Battery Pack
• The ambient temperature range is be-
tween 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F).
If the battery pack is used when the
battery temperature is below 0°C
(32°F), the tool may fail to function
properly.
• When charging a cool battery pack
(below 0°C (32°F)) in a warm place,
leave the battery pack at the place
and wait for more than one hour to
warm up the battery to the level of
the ambient temperature.
• Cool down the charger when charg-
ing more than two battery packs
consecutively.
• Do not insert your fingers into con-
tact hole, when holding charger or
any other occasions.
CAUTION:
To prevent the risk of fire or damage
to the battery charger.
• Do not use power source from an
engine generator.
• Do not cover vent holes on the
charger and the battery pack.
• Unplug the charger when not in use.
Li-ion Battery Pack
NOTE:
Your battery pack is not fully charged

charge the battery before use.
Battery charger (EY0L80)
1. Plug the charger into the AC outlet.
NOTE:
Sparks may be produced when the
plug is inserted into the AC power
supply, but this is not a problem in
terms of safety.
2. Insert the battery pack firmly into the
charger.
1. Line up the alignment marks and
place the battery onto the dock on
the charger.
2. Slide forward in the direction of the
arrow.
3. During charging, the charging lamp will
be lit.
When charging is completed, an inter-
nal electronic switch will automatically
be triggered to prevent overcharging.
• Charging will not start if the battery
pack is warm (for example, immedi-
ately after heavy-duty operation).
The orange standby lamp will be
flashing until the battery cools down.
Charging will then begin automatically.
4. The charge lamp (green) will flash
slowly once the battery is approxi-
mately 80% charged.
5. When charging is completed, the
charging lamp will start flashing quickly
in green color.
6. If the temperature of the battery pack
is 0°C or less, charging takes longer to
fully charge the battery pack than the
standard charging time.
Even when the battery is fully charged,
it will have approximately 50% of the
power of a fully charged battery at nor-
mal operating temperature.
