The tool will automatically turn off if the Electronic
Protection System engages.
Battery Charging Indoors
This charger is designed to be used indoors. We do not
recommend that it is used inside your home. Ideally
batteries should be charged on a bench in a workshop,
garage or shed. If the charging operation is to be carried
out in your home the area must be well ventilated and
the charger must be placed on a non combustible
surface ensuring that the ventilation slots are not
blocked.
Wall Mounting
These chargers are designed to be wall mountable or to
sit upright on a table or work surface. If wall mounting,
locate the charger within reach of an electrical outlet,
and away from a corner or other obstructions which
may impede air flow. Use the back of the charger as a
template for the location of the mounting screws on the
wall. Mount the charger securely using suitable fixings
depending on wall type, a head diameter of 7 – 9mm
and length of 25mm is recommended. Leave a suitable
length of the screw exposed to allow the charger to be
fitted. Align the slots on the back of the charger with the
exposed screws and fully engage them in the slots.
Charger Cleaning Instructions
WARNING:
Shock hazard. Disconnect the
charger from the AC outlet before cleaning. Dirt and
grease may be removed from the exterior of the charger
using a cloth or soft non-metallic brush. Do not use
water or any cleaning solutions. Never let any liquid get
inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into
a liquid.
Battery Packs
Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Packs
When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure to
include product reference and voltage.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton.
Before using the battery pack and charger, read
the safety instructions below. Then follow charging
procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not charge or use battery in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or
removing the battery from the charger may ignite the
dust or fumes.
• Never force battery pack into charger. Do not
modify battery pack in any way to fit into a non-
compatible charger as battery pack may rupture
causing serious personal injury.
EN - T18S/BJ
• Charge the battery packs only in Trend chargers.
• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack
in locations where the temperature may fall
below 4ºC (34ºF) (such as outside sheds or metal
buildings in winter), or reach or exceed 40ºC
(104ºF) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings
in summer).
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is
severely damaged or is completely worn out. The
battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and
materials are created when lithium-ion battery packs
are burned.
• If battery contents come into contact with the
skin, immediately wash area with mild soap and
water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water
over the open eye for 15 minutes or until irritation
ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery
electrolyte is composed of a mixture of liquid organic
carbonates and lithium salts.
• Contents of opened battery cells may cause
respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If symptoms
persists, seek medical attention.
WARNING:
Burn hazard. Battery liquid
may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
WARNING:
Never attempt to open the
battery pack for any reason. If battery pack case is
cracked or damaged, do not insert into charger. Do
not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a
battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, run over or damaged in any way (i.e.,
pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped on).
Electric shock or electrocution may result. Damaged
battery packs should be returned to service centre for
recycling.
WARNING:
Fire hazard. Do not store or
carry the battery pack so that metal objects can
contact exposed battery terminals. For example,
do not place the battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool
boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails,
screws, keys, etc.
CAUTION:
When not in use, place tool
on its side on a stable surface where it will not
cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with
large battery packs will stand upright on the battery pack
but may be easily knocked over.

Battery Operation
Charge Status
To display the amount of charge left in the battery, press
the charge level indicator button, (Fig.2). Fig. 2a shows
the relation between the LED indication and charge left.
NOTE: The battery charge level indicator is only an
indication of the charge left on the battery pack. It does
not indicate tool functionality and is subject to variation
based on product components, temperature and end-
user application.
Self-Discharge
A lithium battery can self discharge and lose its stored
charge. Typically it can lose approximately 5% of its
charge in the first month after fully charging (when stored
at room temperature), and then loses it by a further 3%
per month. When stored at higher temperatures the self-
discharge rate will be accelerated.
Transportation
WARNING:
Fire hazard. Transporting
batteries can possibly cause fire if the battery terminals
inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials.
When transporting batteries, make sure that the battery
terminals are protected and well insulated from materials
that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
NOTE: Lithium-ion batteries should not be put in
checked baggage.
Trend batteries comply with all applicable shipping
regulations as prescribed by industry and legal standards
which include UN Recommendations on the Transport
of Dangerous Goods; International Air Transport
Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations,
International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG)
Regulations, and the European Agreement Concerning
The International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by
Road (ADR). Lithium-ion cells and batteries have been
tested to section 38.3 of the UN Recommendations on
the Transport of Dangerous Goods Manual of Tests and
Criteria.
In most instances, shipping a Trend battery pack will
be excepted from being classified as a fully regulated
Class 9 Hazardous Material. In general, only shipments
containing a lithium-ion battery with an energy rating
greater than 100 Watt Hours (Wh) will require being
shipped as fully regulated Class 9.
All lithium-ion batteries have the Watt Hour rating
marked on the pack. Furthermore, due to regulation
complexities, Trend does not recommend air shipping
lithium-ion battery packs alone regardless of Watt Hour
rating. Shipments of tools with batteries (combo kits) can
be air shipped as excepted if the Watt Hour rating of the
battery pack is no greater than 100 Whr.
Regardless of whether a shipment is considered
excepted or fully regulated, it is the shipper's
EN - T18S/BJ
responsibility to consult the latest regulations for
packaging, labelling/marking and documentation
requirements.
The information provided in this section of the manual
is provided in good faith and believed to be accurate
at the time the document was created. However, no
warranty, expressed or implied, is given. It is the buyer's
responsibility to ensure that its activities comply with the
applicable regulations.
Storage Recommendations
The best storage place is one that is cool and dry
away from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold. For
optimum battery performance and life, store battery
packs at room temperature when not in use.
For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully
charged battery pack in a cool, dry place out of the
charger for optimal results.
NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely
depleted of charge. The battery pack will need to be
recharged before use.
Labels on Charger and Battery Pack
In addition to the pictographs used in this manual, the
labels on the charger and the battery pack may show the
following pictographs: -
Read instruction manual before use.
