Table 1RECOMMENDED MINIMUM AWG SIZE FOREXTENTION CORDS FOR BATTERY CHARGERSAC Input Rating Amperes* AWG Size of CordEqual to or but less Length of Cord, Feet (Meter)greater than than 25 (7.5) 50 (15) 100 (30) 150 (45)02 1818 18 1623 1818 16 1434 1818 16 14 01Eng_UC10SL2_US 4/2/14, 10:504English

• 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

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 qualified serviceman.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: The information contained in this Instruction Manual is designed to assist you in the safe operation and maintenance of the battery charger. NEVER operate, or attempt any maintenance on the battery charger unless you have first read and understood all safety instructions contained in this manual. Some illustrations in this Instruction Manual may show details or attachments that differ from those on your own battery charger.

APPLICATIONS For charging the metabo HPT batteries type BCL10 series. CHARGING METHOD NOTE: Before plugging into the receptacle, make sure the following points. 䡬 The power source voltage is stated on the nameplate. 䡬 The cord is not damaged.

WARNING: Do not charge at voltage higher than indicated on the nameplate.

If charged at voltage higher than indicated on the nameplate, the charger will burn up.

1. Insert the plug of battery charger into the receptacle.

When the plug of battery charger has been inserted into the receptacle, pilot lamp will blink in red. (At 1-second intervals)

2. Insert the battery to the battery charger.

Insert the battery into the battery charger as shown in Fig. 2.

䡬 When the battery is connected to the battery charger, charging will commence and the pilot lamp will light in red. (See Table 2) NOTE: If the pilot lamp does not light or blink in red, pull out the plug from the receptacle and check if the battery is properly mounted. 䡬 When the battery is fully charged, the pilot lamp will blink in red slowly. (At 1-second intervals) (See Table 2) NOTE: The battery charging time becomes longer when a temperature is low or the voltage of the power source is too low. When the pilot lamp does not blink in red (At 1-second intervals) (See Table 2) even if more than four hour has passed after start of the charging, stop the charging and contact your metabo HPT AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.

䡬 Regarding the temperature of the rechargeable battery. The temperatures for rechargeable batteries are as shown in the Table 3, and batteries that have become hot should be cooled for a while before being recharged. 䡬 Regarding recharging time Table 4 shows the recharging time required according to the type of battery. NOTE: The recharging time may vary according to the ambient temperature and the power supply voltage.

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. Remove the battery from the battery charger.

Supporting the battery charger with hand, pull out the battery from the battery charger. CAUTION: 䢇 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. 䢇 If the battery is 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 has just been used, the pilot lamp of the charger lights for 1 second, does not light for 0.5 seconds (off for 0.5 seconds). In such a case, first let the battery cool, then start charging. 䢇 When the pilot lamp flickers (at 0.2-second intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in the charger’s battery installation hole. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center. 䢇 If the battery charger does not work while the battery is mounted correctly, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center. Rechargeable batteries
