⚠ WARNING: Charge only one lithium-ion rechargeable battery per charging port at a time. Other types of batteries may burst, causing personal injury or damage.

• Do not use the charger outdoors or expose to wet or damp conditions. Water entering the charger increases the risk of electric shock.
• Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
• Do not abuse the cord or charger. Never use the cord to carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord when disconnecting from receptacle. Damage to the cord or charger could occur and create an electric shock hazard. If the cord or charger is damaged call customer service.
• Be sure the cord is located where it will not be stepped on, tripped over, contact sharp edges or moving parts, or otherwise be subjected to damage or stress. This will reduce the risk of injury and damage to the cord.
• Keep the cord and charger from heat to prevent damage to housing and internal parts.
• Do not let gasoline, oil, or petroleum-based products come in contact with plastic parts.
• Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to wear the appropriate eye protection may result in serious injury.
• An extension cord should not be used unless necessary. Use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an extension cord must be used, be sure:

a. That the pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those of the plug on the charger.
b. The extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; and
c. That the wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of charger as specified below:

Cord Length (Feet) 25' 50' 100'

Cord Size (AWG) 16 16 16

• Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord or plug. If the charger is damaged, call customer service.
• Do not operate the charger if it has been dropped or damaged.
• Do not disassemble the charger. Call customer service when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

APPLICATIONS

Use this product for the following purpose:

- Charging Westinghouse 20 volt lithium-ion batteries

⚠️ CAUTION: If at any point during the charging process none of the LEDs are lit, remove the battery pack from the charger to avoid damaging the product. DO NOT insert another battery. Check the GFCI plug, as the issue could be due to a tripped breaker. If the problem persists, contact customer service for troubleshooting assistance.

NOTICE: Be sure to use this product in a well-ventilated area. Do not block charger vents. Keep the charger vents clear to allow proper ventilation.

CHARGING PROCEDURE:

Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible problems. Charge battery packs to full charge (indicated by a solid green light) before first use. If the charger does not charge the battery pack under normal circumstances, contact customer support for troubleshooting assistance or to arrange for a replacement of the battery.

Charge time varies and is dependent upon the amp hour capacity of battery pack.

• Be sure the power supply is normal household voltage, 120 volts, AC only, 60 Hz.
• Connect the charger to a power supply.
• Attach the battery pack to the charger by aligning the raised ribs on the battery pack with the grooves in the charger, then slide the battery pack onto the charger.
• Press down on the battery pack, be sure contacts on the battery pack engage properly with slide in the charger.
• Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.
• The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
  • After charging is complete, the green LED will remain on.
• To remove the battery pack from the charger, pull up on the battery pack.

CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK

When using a tool continuously, the battery pack may become hot. A hot battery pack may be placed directly onto the charger port but charging will not begin until the battery temperature cools to within acceptable temperature range. When a hot battery pack is placed on the charger, the green LED will turn OFF and the red LED will be FLASHING. Remove the battery for 30 minutes and allow it to cool down, then place it back on the charger.

CHARGING A COLD BATTERY PACK

A cold battery pack may be placed directly onto the charger port but charging will not begin until the battery temperature warms to within acceptable temperature range. When a cold battery pack is placed on the charger, the green LED will turn OFF and the red LED will be FLASHING. The charger will automatically begin charging when the battery pack warms.
