SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER

WARNING!

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

n

Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings in this manual, on battery charger, battery, and product using battery to prevent misuse of the products and possible injury or damage.

CAUTION:

To reduce the risk of damage to the charger and battery, charge only nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries as specifically designated on the charger. Other types of batteries may burst, causing personal injury or damage.

n

Do not use charger outdoors or expose to wet or damp

conditions. Water entering charger will increase the risk of electric shock.

To reduce risk of damage to cigarette lighter connector and cord, pull by cigarette lighter connector rather than cord when disconnecting charger.

Do not operate charger with damaged cord or cigarette lighter connector – replace it immediately.

n

Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of

fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.

Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to

damage or stress. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.

n

Do not abuse cord or charger. Never use the cord to carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord rather than the plug when disconnecting from receptacle. Damage to the cord or charger could occur and create an electric shock hazard. Replace damaged cords immediately.

n

Keep cord and charger from heat to prevent damage to housing or internal parts.

n

Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products,

etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can damage, weaken, or destroy plastic.

Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified service center.

n

Do not disassemble charger. Take it to an authorized service center when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

n

Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.

WARNING:

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

LED FUNCTIONS OF CHARGER

LED WILL BE ON TO INDICATE STATUS OF

CHARGER AND BATTERY PACK:

See Figure 2.

n

Red Power LED on = Charger is getting power from cigarette lighter receptacle or powerpoint.

n

Red LED on = Quick charging mode.

n

Green LED flashing = Charging n

Green LED on = Fully charged and in maintenance charge mode.

n

Red LED flashing = When battery pack is inserted into charger, indicates hot battery pack or that battery pack is out of normal temperature range or is evaluating.

n

Yellow LED on and Red LED flashing = Deeply discharged or defective battery pack.

n

Yellow LED flashing = This is a High and Low input voltage shutdown. If the cigarette adapter plug voltage is above

15Vdc or below 10Vdc the charger will stop charging. If input voltage is between 10.5Vdc and 10Vdc, the yellow

LED will flash and alarm will sound.

NOTE: There is a low input voltage audible alarm for less than 10.5Vdc input. The yellow LED will flash. You should start your car to recharge the vehicle battery and/or remove the charger adapter plug to stop the charging before the car battery is completely drained.

n

No LED on = Defective charger or battery pack.

6

OPERATION

CHARGING A COOL BATTERY PACK

If battery pack is within normal temperature range, the red

LED on charger will come on.

NOTE: If the charger does not charge the battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest Ryobi Authorized Service Center for electrical check.

n Charge the battery pack only with the charger provided.

n

Make sure the power supply is normal voltage,

12 volts,

DC only.

n Connect the charger to the power supply.

n

Place the battery pack in the charger aligning raised rib on the battery pack with the groove in the charger.

See Figure 3.

n

Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts on the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the charger.

n

Normally the red LED on charger will come on. This indicates the charger is in quick charging mode.

n Red LED should remain on for approximately 1 hour then the green LED will come on. Green LED on indicates battery pack is fully charged and charger is in maintenance charge mode.

NOTE: The green LED will remain on until the battery pack is removed from the charger or charger is disconnected from the power supply.

n

If the red LED is flashing and yellow LED is on, this indicates a deeply discharged battery pack. When the red LED is flashing, this indicates the battery pack has reached the normal voltage range. Allow the battery pack to remain in charger for 30 minutes. If after 30 minutes the yellow LED is on and the red LED is flashing, this indicates a defective battery pack.

n

After normal usage, a minimum of 1 hour of charging time is required to fully recharge battery pack.

n

The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.

n

Do not place the charger and battery pack in an area of extreme heat or cold. They will work best at normal room temperature.

NOTE: The charger and battery pack should be placed in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than 100°F.

OPERATION

CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK

When using a tool continuously, the batteries in the battery pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before attempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes discharged and is hot, this will cause the red LED to blink. If the red LED continues to blink and the yellow LED comes on, return battery pack to your nearest Ryobi Authorized Service Center for checking or replacing.

NOTE: This situation only occurs when continuous use of a tool causes the batteries to become hot. It does not occur under normal circumstances. Refer to

“CHARGING

A COOL BATTERY PACK” for normal recharging of batteries. If the charger does not charge the battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest Ryobi Authorized Service

Center for electrical check.

ENERGIZING BATTERY CHARGER

See Figure 4.

By holding the connector firmly, place connector into a cigarette lighter receptacle or “power point” to energize battery charger, red POWER LED will come on.
