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 UC36YSL.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) About the Battery Capacity Lamp <Charging the Battery> The charge capacity of a battery that is charging can be checked using the battery capacity indicator lamp. The lamp’s indications for the battery capacity are as shown in Table 3. 000BookUC36YSLNAmetabo.indb10000BookUC36YSLNAmetabo.indb10 2018/03/1415:56:002018/03/1415:56:0011 English Table 3 State of lamp Battery capacity Blinks Battery capacity at less than 25% Blinks Battery capacity at less than 50% Blinks Battery capacity at less than 75% Blinks Battery capacity at more than 75% Lights Charging complete NOTE A short time after charging is complete, the battery capacity lamp turns off . <Charging the Back Pack Power Supply> NOTE ○ When the back pack power supply is being charged, the charger’s battery capacity lamp does not light up. Use the remaining capacity indicator lamp on the back pack power supply’s switch panel as an estimate of how much charge time remains. ○ If the back pack power supply is being charged and the charge indicator lamp blinks red (high temperature standby status), allow the back pack power supply to cool for about 5 minutes or turn the switch on the side of it ON. (3) 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 4, and batteries and back pack power supply that have become hot should be cooled for a while before being recharged.

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. Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries or back pack power supplies, etc. As the internal chemical substance of new batteries or back pack power supplies and batteries or back pack power supplies that have not been used for an extended period is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when using them the fi rst and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries or back pack power supplies 2 – 3 times. How to make the batteries and back pack power supplies perform longer. (1) Recharge the batteries and back pack power supplies before they become completely exhausted. 000BookUC36YSLNAmetabo.indb12000BookUC36YSLNAmetabo.indb12 2018/03/1415:56:012018/03/1415:56:0113 English When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery and back pack power supplies. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery and back pack power supplies may be damaged and its life will become shorter. (2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery and back pack power supplies will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery and back pack power supplies are recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery and back pack power supplies life will be shortened. Leave the battery and back pack power supplies for a while, and recharge them after they have cooled. CAUTION: ● If the battery and back pack power supplies 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 charge indicator lamp of the charger lights for 0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (off for

0.3 seconds). In such a case, fi rst let the battery cool, then start charging.

● When the charge indicator lamp fl ickers (at 0.2-second 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 UC36YSL 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. ● Do not block the ventilation holes with cloth or other materials while charging. 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. 000BookUC36YSLNAmetabo.indb13000BookUC36YSLNAmetabo.indb13 2018/03/1415:56:012018/03/1415:56:0114 English
