WARNING: Death or serious bodily injury could result from improper or unsafe

use of battery chargers. To avoid these risks, follow these basic safety instructions:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains

important safety and operating instructions for battery charger Model UC36YRSL.2. Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2) battery and back pack power supply, and (3) product using battery and back pack power supply.

CAUTI ON -To reduce risk of injury, charge only metabo HPT rechargeable battery types BSL14, BSL18, BSL25 and BSL36 series, and type BL36200. Other type of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.4. Do not expose battery charger to rain or snow.5. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fi re, electric shock, or injury to persons. 6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug when disconnecting battery charger.7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fi re and electric shock. If extension cord must be used make sure:a. That blades of extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as those of plug on battery charger:b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; and c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of battery charger as specifi ed in Table 1.Table 1RECOMMENDED MINIMUM AWG SIZE FOREXTENSION CORDS FOR BATTERY CHARGERSAC Input rating amperes* AWG size of cordEqual to or greater thanbut less than Length of cord, feet (Meter)25 (7.5) 50 (15) 100 (30) 150 (45)

• If the input rating of a battery charger is given in watts rather than in amperes, the corresponding ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage rating by the voltage rating—for example: 1,250 watts = 10 amperes 125 volts

9. Do not operate battery charger with damaged cord or plug-replace them immediately.

10. Do not operate battery charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise

damaged in any way; take it to a qualifi ed serviceman.

11. Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a qualifi ed serviceman when service or

repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fi re.

12. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from receptacle before attempting any

maintenance or cleaning. Removing the battery or back pack power supply will not reduce this risk.

13. This battery charger might be attached to metabo HPT battery or back pack power supply

operated tools as a standard accessory. In this case, please confi rm Instruction Manual of the metabo HPT battery or back pack power supply operated tools before using the battery charger.

(2) Regarding the temperature of the rechargeable battery and back pack power supply. The temperature for rechargeable batteries and back pack power supply are as shown in the Table 3, and batteries and back pack power supply that have become hot should be cooled for a while before being recharged. Table 3 Rechargeable batteries and back pack power supply Temperature which the battery and back pack power supply can be recharged BSL1415, BSL1415X, BSL1430, BSL1440, BSL1815, BSL1815X, BSL1830, BSL1840, BSL2530, BSL3620, BL36200 32°F — 122°F (0°C — 50°C) (3) Regarding recharging time Table 4 shows the recharging time required according to the battery and back pack power supply. 000BookUC36YRSLUSmetabo.indb10000BookUC36YRSLUSmetabo.indb10 2018/03/1416:33:332018/03/1416:33:3311 English Table 4 Recharging time (approx.) at 20°C Battery voltage Battery capacity (Ah) Li-ion Battery Back pack power supply

36 V — 60 min. —— 10 hours NOTE: The recharging time may vary according to the ambient temperature.

4. Disconnect battery charger from the receptacle.

CAUTION: Do not pull the plug out of the receptacle by pulling on the cord. Make sure to grasp the plug when removing from receptacle to avoid damaging cord.

5. Hold the charger fi rmly and pull out the battery or adaptor of back pack power supply.

NOTE: ○ Be sure to pull out the battery or adaptor of back pack power supply from the charger after use, and then keep it. ○ When the back pack power supply is not in use, switch it OFF. How to make the batteries and back pack power supply perform longer. (1) Recharge the batteries and back pack power supply before they become completely exhausted. When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery and back pack power supply. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery and back pack power supply may be damaged and its life will become shorter. (2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery and back pack power supply will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery and back pack power supply are recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery and back pack power supply life will be shortened. Leave the battery and back pack power supply for a while, and recharge them after they have cooled. CAUTION: ● When the battery charger has been continuously used, the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging. 000BookUC36YRSLUSmetabo.indb11000BookUC36YRSLUSmetabo.indb11 2018/03/1416:33:332018/03/1416:33:3312 English ● If the battery and back pack power supply are charged while it is heated because it has been left for a long time in a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery and back pack power supply have just been used, the pilot lamp of the charger lights up green. In such a case, fi rst let the battery and back pack power supply cool, then start charging. ● When the charge status fl ickers in red (at 0.2-seconds intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in the charger’s battery connector. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery, back pack power supply or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center. ● Since the built-in microcomputer takes about 3 seconds to confi rm that the battery and back pack power supply being charged with UC36YRSL is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds before reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery is reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery and back pack power supply may not be properly charged. BEFORE USE Check the work area to make sure that it is clear of debris and clutter. Clear the area of unnecessary personnel. Ensure that lighting and ventilation is adequate.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

CAUTION: Pull out battery or back pack power supply before doing any inspection or maintenance.

Loose screws are dangerous. Regularly inspect them and make sure they are tight. CAUTION: Using this battery charger with loosened screws is extremely dangerous.

Dust may be removed with a soft cloth or a cloth dampened with soapy water. Do not use bleach, chlorine, gasoline or thinner, for they may damage the plastics.
