Additional Instructions For Work With The Battery Pack; Fitting And Removing The Battery Pack; Battery Charging - RS Components 18410192377 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but
not limited to, steel wool, aluminium foil, or any build-
up of metallic particles should be kept away from
charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the
power supply when there is no battery pack in the cav-
ity. Unplug charger before attempting to clean.
▪ Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any
other liquid.
VI - Additional instructions
for work with the
battery pack
▪ The battery pack for this tool has been shipped in a
low charge condition. You should charge the battery
pack fully before use.
WaRning: If the battery pack is cracked or
damaged in any other way, do not insert it in the char-
ger. There is a danger of electric shock.
▪ To ensure the longest battery life and best battery
performance, always charge the battery when the air
temperature is between 18–24°C. Do not charge the
battery pack when the temperature is below 0°C, or
above 40°C. This is important. Failure to observe this
safety rule could cause serious damage to the bat-
tery pack.
▪ The charger and battery pack may become warm to
touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and
does not indicate a problem.
▪ To prevent overheating, do not charge battery packs
in direct sunlight in hot weather or near heat sources.
▪ Do not charge inside a box or container of any kind.
The battery must be placed in a well ventilated area
during charging.
▪ When the battery is defective, liquid can escape and
come into contact with adjacent components. Check
any parts concerned. Clean such parts or replace
them, if required.
▪ If the battery pack does not charge properly:
(1) Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp
or other appliance.
(2) Move charger and battery pack to a location
where the surrounding air temperature is approxi-
mately 65°F–75°F (18°C–24°C).
(3) If charging problems persist, take or send the tool,
battery pack and charger to your local service
centre.
▪ The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to
produce sufficient power on jobs, which were easily
done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under
these conditions. Follow the charging procedure.
▪ Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is seriously
damaged or can no longer hold a charge. The battery
pack can explode in a fire.
▪ To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use,
avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm
environment such as in a metal shed, or an uninsu-
lated trailer.

▪ Always use correct RS battery pack (the one supplied
with tool or a replacement pack exactly like it.) Never
install any other battery pack. It will ruin your tool and
may create a hazardous condition.
▪ Charge battery packs only in RS chargers.
▪ Use an environmentally safe disposal unit at a munici-
pal waste disposal centre to dispose of a damaged or
worn out battery.

pack
To remove the battery from the machine: press the bat-
tery release button (9) and take the battery out of the tool.
WaRning: Always set the forward/reverse
switch (4) in central position before any work on the
machine e. g. fitting and removing a battery, tool
change, transport, maintenance and storage.
To install the battery: Insert the charged battery (10) into
the slot below the button (9) until the battery is securely
latched with a click.

batteRy cHaRging

Insert the plug of the charger (12) in the socket, and the
charging indicator (11) will be flickered in green,red and
yellow in turn within one second. And then, the battery
charger will be in the standby position.
Insert the battery (10) in the battery charger considering
the polarity.
A new battery will work properly after five times of charg-
ing and discharging. Charge and discharge a battery,
which is not used for a long time, for two to three times
to function well.
When the battery working time is remarkably short de-
spite full charging, the life of the battery may be over.
Replace the battery immediately.
WaRning: The battery will be fully charged
after 1 hour, remove it from the charger after this time.
1) Charging indication:
