INSTRUCTION MANUAL Charging a Battery NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion battery packs, charge the battery pack fully before first use. Battery module is charged using the supplied charging unit, which is plugged into a main power supply. See Figure 1. To charge battery module: 1. Lift charge port cover. 2. Insert charging cord into charging port. 3. Plug charger power cord into wall receptacle (outlet). Figure 1 4. Check indicator lights on side of charging unit (see table below). Indicators Charging Fully Charged Hot/Cold Pack* Hot/Cold Pack* Not Charging Charging Error *Charger will automatically shut down when these indicators are displayed. Unplug machine to reset battery. Plug machine back in to resume charging. The compatible charger(s) will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger will indicate faulty battery pack by refusing to light. NOTE: This could also mean a problem with the charger. If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger and machine to be tested at an authorized service center. Hot/Cold Pack When the charger detects a battery pack that is too hot or too cold to charge, it will display one of the Hot/Cold Pack indicators and shut down. To resume charging, unplug the machine, allow the charger to reset, then plug the machine back in following the instructions provided earlier in this manual. Important Charging Notes 1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the machine is charged when the air temperature is between (65° F - 75° F (18° C - 24° C). Charger will only charge when battery pack temperature is between +40° F (+4.5° C) and +104° F (+40° C). NOTE: Charger will not allow charging when battery pack temperature is below +40° F (+4.5° C), or above +104° F (+40° C). 2. The charger and machine may become warm to the touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the machine after use, avoid placing the charger or machine in a warm environment such as in a metal shed or an uninsulated trailer. 3. If the machine does not charge properly: a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance; b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights; c. Move the charger and machine to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately 65° F - 75° F (18° C - 24° C); d. If charging problems persist, take the charger and machine to your local service center. 4. The machine should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used machine whenever you desire with no adverse effect on the battery pack. 5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when not charging the machine. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean. 6. DO NOT freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid. Charger Cleaning Instructions WARNING Shock hazard. Disconnect the charger from the AC outlet before cleaning. Dirt and grease may be removed from the exterior of the charger using a cloth or soft non-metallic brush. DO NOT use water or any cleaning solutions. Storage Recommendations 1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry, away from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold. 2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged machine in a cool dry place with the charger disconnected for optimal results. NOTE: Machine should not be stored completely depleted of charge. The machine will need to be recharged before use. Maintenance Repairs The charger and battery pack are not serviceable. There are no serviceable parts inside the charger or battery pack. WARNING To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment (including motor brush inspection and replacement, when applicable) should be performed by a factory authorized service center. Always use Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) replacement parts. MTD PRODUCTS INC., CLEVELAND, OHIO 44280, U.S.A., 1-800-269-6215 2

temperature is between (65° F - 75° F (18° C - 24° C). Charger will only charge when battery
pack temperature is between +40° F (+4.5° C) and +104° F (+40° C).
NOTE:
Charger will not allow charging when battery pack temperature is below +40° F (+4.5° C), or above
+104° F (+40° C).
2.
The charger and machine may become warm to the touch while charging. This is a normal
condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the machine after use,
