SPECIFICATIONS

NOTE: The battery pack will not reach full charge capacity on the first few

charges. The break-in period requires 4 to 5 charging cycles, where the

battery pack is completely discharged (no motor sound or tool motion) and

then fully recharged. During the break-in period the battery pack needs to

charge 5 or more hours continuously. The green LED light on the charger

will come on in 3-5 hours, this is normal. Continue to leave the battery pack

charging for a total of 5 hours or more. After the break-in period, a full

recharge is indicated on the charger when the green LED light is lit.

properly, or the charger does not charge the battery pack, return the

outlet for free replacement.

NOTE: A hot battery pack only occurs when prolonged continuous use of

typical use. Within the warranty period, if the battery pack becomes hot

with typical use, return the charger and battery pack to your nearest Sears

store or other Craftsman outlet for free replacement.

CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK

7. The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is

normal and does not indicate a problem.

8. Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or cold. It will work best at

normal room temperature.

9. When battery pack becomes fully charged, unplug battery charger from power

supply and remove the battery pack.

When using your tool continuously, the batteries in your battery pack will become

hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before

attempting to recharge.

5. The red light will switch to green, which means the battery is full, and charging is

completed. A discharged battery at normal room temperature will take

approximately 5 hours to reach full charge. When charging is completed, unplug

the charger and remove the batter pack.

6. After normal use, 3-5 hour charging time is required to fully recharge the battery

pack. If battery pack has not been charged for two or more months or completely

discharged, then it should be charged continuously for 5 or more hours.
