IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR RECHARGING HOT BATTERIES
When using your drill-driver continuously, the batteries in your 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 light on your battery charger to flash. When battery pack
cools down, red light will glow continuously indicating fast charging mode, 1 hour charge time. The green light
indicates slow charging mode, requiring overnight charging for batteries to reach full charge. Once the battery
pack cools down, it will recharge battery pack in fast charging mode as normal.
Note: This situation only occurs when continuous use of your drill causes the batteries to become hot. It does not
occur under normal circumstances.
Refer to "CHARGING
YOUR DRILL-DRIVER"
for normal recharging of
batteries. If the charger does not charge your battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery
pack and charger to your nearest Sears repair center for electrical check.

BATTERIES
Your drill's battery pack is equipped with 11 nickelcadmium rechargeable batteries. Length of service
from each charging will depend on the type of work
you are doing.
The batteries in this tool have been designed to provide maximum trouble free life. However, like all batteries, they will eventually wear out. Do not disassemble battery pack and attempt to replace the batteries. Handling of these batteries, especially
when wearing rings and jewelry, could result in a
serious burn.
To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following:
•
Store and charge your batteries in a cool area.
Temperatures above normal room temperature will shorten battery life.
•
Never store batteries in a discharged condition.
Recharge them immediately after they are discharged.
•
All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature the quicker they lose their
charge. If you store your tool for long periods of
time without using it, recharge the batteries every month or two. This practice will prolong battery life.
OVERLOAD
Your drill has a built-in overload protector to protect the motor during overloading or prolonged use. The overload protector automatically activates to break the
circuit. When this occurs, allow your drill to cool a few
seconds before resuming operation.
