Charging the battery (Fig. 15)
• Take the battery pack out of the equipment. Do this by
pressing the pushlock button.
• Check that your mains voltage is the same as that
marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. In-
sert the power plug of the charger (10) into the mains
socket outlet. The green light on the plug-in charging
device illuminates.
• Connect the charging set to the charging station using
the jack plug of the charging set with the socket on the
rear of the charging station.
• The battery charging process now begins and is sig-
nalled by the red indicator light on the charging device
(10).
• Once the rechargeable battery has been fully charged,
the indicator light on charging device (10) changes
from red to green.
• Charging takes approx. 3-5 hours. The battery heats
up during the charging process. This is normal and
does not signal a fault. Remove the rechargeable bat-
tery after no more than 5 hours.
Note: Occasionally, the permissible temperature range
may be exceeded during the charging cycle. In this case,
the electronic charging control interrupts the charging cy-

Thermal and voltage protection
If the tool is subject to excessively high loads for an ex-
tended period, the rechargeable battery may switch off.
If this occurs leave the battery to cool down for approx.
30 minutes.
