ASSEMBLING THE BACK PACK POWER SUPPLY

1. The large-capacity power output cable can be withdrawn from either side.

Decide on the best side for operations, and then insert the output cable into the cable groove.

The direction of the cable can be easily amended after it has been set in position. (Fig. 3)

1. Attach the carrier to the large-capacity power supply with the four M5 screws supplied with the use of a Phillips screwdriver.

Tighten the two knob bolts by hand to stabilize the position of the output cable.

The knob bolts can be removed by hand so that the direction of the output cable can easily be changed at any time. (Fig. 4)

1. Pass the carrier strap through the attachment hole on the large-capacity power supply from the back, and fix it in place in two locations as shown in the illustration. (Fig. 5)

CAUTION:

Check to make sure the M5 screws and knob bolts for attaching the carrier are not loose. Also check to confirm that the carrier strap has been firmly attached.

Failure to observe this may result in the back pack power supply being dropped, leading to injury or damage.

1. Pass the switch panel through the rear of the accessory box and store it in the panel case. (Fig. 6)
2. Align the power connector and adapter connector with the respective ○ marks, push them into place and rotate the rings to secure them. (Fig. 7)
3. If the cable gets in the way, adjust its position with the waist band or Velcro band. (Fig. 8)
4. Adjust the bands and strap in consideration of the job in hand and ease-of-movement. Also make the most efficient use of the armband supplied in accordance with the characteristics of the cordless power tool being used.

NOTE

Use the arm band when using cordless bush trimmers to prevent the adapter cable from being accidentally severed. (Fig. 8)

WARNING: Do not use the electrical cord if damaged. Have it repaired immediately.

1. Connect the charger's power cord to the receptacle.

When connecting the plug of the charger to a receptacle, the pilot lamp will blink in red. (At 1-second intervals)

1. Insert the adaptor of back pack power supply into the charger.

Place the back pack power supply in a horizontal position and turn it on by the switch on the side. Firmly insert the adaptor into the charger until the line is visible, as shown in Fig. 9.

Switch panel Adapter Back pack power supply Main switch Pilot lamp

Fig. 9

NOTE:

If the pilot lamp of the charger lights in green (high temperature standby status) when the adaptor is inserted into the charger, check that the battery status lamp on the back pack power supply control panel is lit in red.

If the battery status lamp is OFF, the back pack power supply switch may be turned OFF.

If the back pack power supply switch is turned OFF, disconnect the adaptor and turn on the switch before reinserting the adaptor.

3. Charging

When inserting an adaptor of back pack power supply in the charger, the pilot lamp will light up continuously in red.

When the back pack power supply becomes fully recharged, the pilot lamp will blink in red. (At 1-second intervals.) (See Table 1)

(1) Lamp indication

The indications of the pilot lamp will be as shown in Table 1, according to the condition of the charger or the back pack power supply.

Table 1

Indications of the pilot lamp
The pilot lamp lights or blinks in red.	Before charging	Blinks	Lights for 0.5 seconds. Does not light for 0.5 seconds. (off for 0.5 seconds)
	While charging	Lights	Lights continuously
	Charging complete	Blinks	Lights for 0.5 seconds. Does not light for 0.5 seconds. (off for 0.5 seconds)
	Charging impossible	Flickers	Lights for 0.1 seconds. Does not light for 0.1 seconds. (off for 0.1 seconds)	Malfunction in the back pack power supply or the charger
The pilot lamp lights in green.	Overheat standby	Lights	Lights continuously	Back pack power supply overheated. Unable to charge. (Charging will commence when back pack power supply cools)

NOTE: The cooling fan does not rotate while the back pack power supply is charging.

(2) Regarding the temperature of the back pack power supply.

The temperature for back pack power supply are as shown in the Table 2, and back pack power supply that have become hot should be cooled for a while before being recharged.

Table 2

Back Pack Power Supply	Temperature which the back pack power supply can be recharged
BL36200	32^ - 122^ (0^ - 50^)

(3) Regarding recharging time

Table 3 shows the recharging time required according to the type of back pack power supply.

Table 3 Charging time (At 68°F (20°C))

Back Pack Power Supply\Charger	UC36YRSL
BL36200 Approx. 10 hours

NOTE:

The recharging time may vary according to the ambient temperature.

1. Disconnect the charger's power cord from the receptacle.
2. Hold the charger firmly and pull out the adaptor of back pack power supply.

NOTE:

Be sure to pull out the 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 back pack power supply perform longer.

(1) Recharge the 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 back pack power supply.

If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the back pack power supply may be damaged and its life will become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.

A back pack power supply will be hot immediately after use. If such a back pack power supply are recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the back pack power supply life will be shortened. Leave the back pack power supply for a while, and recharge them after they have cooled.

CAUTION:

• If the 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 back pack power supply have just been used, the pilot lamp of the charger lights up green. In such a case, first let the back pack power supply cool, then start charging.
• When the charge status flickers 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 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 confirm that the 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 adapter of back pack power supply is reinserted within 3 seconds, the back pack power supply may not be properly charged.

ATTACHING AND DETACHING THE CARRIER

Attaching the Carrier (Fig.10)

1. Put on the carrier.
2. Adjust the length of the belt so that the waist buckle is fixed in place on your waist.
