• For optimum battery life, store the Li-ion 
battery pack following use without charging 
it.
•  When charging the battery pack, confirm 
that the terminals on the battery charger 
are free of foreign substances such as 
dust and water etc. Clean the terminals 
before charging the battery pack if any 
foreign substances are found on the ter -
minals. 
  The life of the battery pack terminals may 
be affected by foreign substances such as 
dust and water etc. during operation.
 
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it 
away from other metal objects like: paper 
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other 
small metal objects that can make a con -
nection from one terminal to another.

cling of materials, be sure that it is dis -
posed of at an officially assigned loca -
tion, if there is one in your country.
[Battery Charger]
Charging
Cautions for the Li-ion Battery 
Pack
•  If the temperature of the battery pack falls 
approximately	 below	−10°C	 (14°F),	charg -
ing will automatically stop to prevent degra -
dation of the battery.
Common Cautions for the Li-
ion/Ni-MH/Ni-Cd Battery Pack
•  The ambient temperature range is between 
0°C (3 °F) and 40°C (104°F).
  If the battery pack is used when the bat
-
tery temperature is below 0°C (3 °F), 
the tool may fail to function properly.  
•  When charging a cool battery pack (below 
0°C (3 °F)) in a warm place, leave the 
battery pack at the place and wait for 
more than one hour to warm up the bat -
tery to the level of the ambient tempera -
ture.
• 
Cool down the charger when charging more 
than two battery packs consecutively.
•  Do not insert your fingers into contact 
hole, when holding charger or any other 
occasions.
CAUTION:To prevent the risk of fire or damage to 
the battery charger.
•  Do not use power source from an 
engine generator.
•  Do not cover vent holes on the charger 
and the battery pack.
• Unplug the charger when not in use.
Li-ion Battery Pack
NOTE:Your battery pack is not fully charged at 
the time of purchase. Be sure to charge 
the battery before use.
Battery charger (EY0L80)
1.  Plug the charger into the AC outlet.
NOTE:Sparks may be produced when the plug 
is inserted into the AC power supply, but 
this is not a problem in terms of safety.
.

1  Line up the alignment marks and place the 
battery onto the dock on the charger.
  Slide forward in the direction of the arrow.
 
Alignment marks
3. During charging, the charging lamp will be 
lit.
When charging is completed, an internal 
electronic switch will automatically be trig-
gered to prevent overcharging.
•  Charging will not start if the battery 
pack is warm (for example, immediately 
after heavy-duty operation).
  The orange standby lamp will be flash -
ing until the battery cools down.
  Charging will then begin automatically.
4.  The charge lamp (green) will flash slowly 
once the battery is approximately 80% 
charged.
5. 
When charging is completed, the charging 
lamp will start flashing quickly in green color.
6.  If the temperature of the battery pack is 
0°C or less, charging takes longer to fully 
charge the battery pack than the standard 
charging time. 
						

							- 10 - 
 Even when the battery is fully charged, it 
will have approximately 50% of the power 
of a fully charged battery at normal operat-
ing temperature.
7. 
If the power lamp does not light immediately 
after the charger is plugged in, or if after the 
standard charging time the charging lamp 
does not flash quickly in green, consult an 
authorized dealer.
8.  If a fully charged battery pack is inserted 
into the charger again, the charging lamp 
lights up. After several minutes, the charg -
ing lamp may flash quickly to indicate the
