5.1 BATTERY CHARGER

230 V (115 V) battery chargers can be operated at
220 V or 240 V (110 V).
The battery charger is suitable only for charging
(NiCd/NiMH) batteries (voltage between 7.2 V and
24 V).

5.2 FIRST BATTERY CHARGE

Please not the following points in order to
obtain optimum battery life:
– Connect battery charger (4/3) to mains voltage.
– Insert adapter (4/2) into battery charger slot.
– Insert battery (4/1) into battery charger.
For the fi rst charge, leave the battery in the char-
ger for at least fi ve hours, regardless of the bat-
tery indicator. (The charging time for all subsequent
charges is about 60 minutes)
For all subsequent charges, only recharge the bat-
tery when the red indicator light on the tool comes
on (see section 7.1). Avoid constant charging
when the battery is not yet discharged. This will
ensure optimum battery capacity and life.
Maximum battery output will be reached after four or
fi ve charging/discharging cycles.

5.3 CHARGING THE BATTERY

The charging process and error functions are indica-
ted by a green light (4/3), see chapter 4.2.
The charging time is approx. 60 min.
The maximum charging current fl ows when the tem-
perature of the battery is between 15–45°C. Avoid
charging at battery temperatures below 0°C.
If the battery is not to be used for a longer
period (several days), it should be removed
from the tool and charged in the battery
charger.
The intelligent charger with fuzzy control charges the
battery with the optimum rapid charging current, de-
pending on temperature and capacity. If fully charged,
a preserving charge will prevent self-discharge and
thus guarantee a long battery life.
