SAFETY RULES FOR BATTERY TOOLS
USE ONLY THE CHARGER RECOMMENDED
FOR USE WITH YOUR WORKLIGHT. Do not
substitute any other charger. Use of another charger could cause batteries to explode causing
possible serious injury.
Your battery tool should be charged In a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than 100°F.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention.
jA WARNING; Batteries vent hydrogen gas and
can explode in the presence of a source of igni
tion, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An ex ploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.
A WARNING; Never use a battery pack that
has been damaged or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery pack is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a damaged battery pack im mediately. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury.
m

on battery charger, and product using battery charger. CAUTION; To reduce the risk of injury, charge
only nickel-cadmium type rechargeable batter ies. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
Do not expose to wet or damp conditions.
To reduce the risk of damage to charger body
and cord, pull by charger plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Use of improper exten sion cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If extension cord must be used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the
same number, size and shape as those of plug on charger.
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in
good electrical condition; and
0. That 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 Note: AWG = American Wire Gage

OPERATION

BATTERY PACK/CHARGER
The battery pack and charger are not included with your worklight. They are both sold separately. When purchasing, use the following information:
MODEL NO. BATTERY PACK CHARGER
973.113911 Item No. 9 11375 Item No. 9 11041
(1323517 or 1323903) (1425301)
BATTERY PACK
The battery pack for your worklight has been shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible prob lems. Therefore, you should charge it until light on front of charger changes from red to green.
Note: Batteries will not reach full charge the first time
they are charged. Allow several cycles (operating worklight followed by recharging) for batteries to become fully charged.
CHARGING BATTERY PACK
See Figure 1.
■ Use only the recommended battery pack and charger with your workiight.
■ Make sure power supply is normal household voltage, 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only.
■ Connect charger to power supply.
■ Place battery pack in charger aligning raised rib on battery pack with groove In charger. See Figure 1.
■ Press down on battery pack to be sure contacts on battery pack engage properly with contacts in charger.
■ Normally, the red LED on charger will come on. This indicates charger is in fast charging mode.
■ Red LED should remain on for approximately 1 hour then the green LED will come on. Green LED on indicates battery pack is fully charged and charger is in trickle charge mode. Note: Green
LED will remain on until battery pack is removed from charger or charger is disconnected from power supply.
BATTERY PACK
SHOWN IN CHARGER
■ If both yellow and green LED come on, this indicates a deeply discharged or defective battery pack.
Allow battery pack to remain In charger for 15 to 30 minutes. When battery pack reaches normal voltage range, red LED should come on.
If red LED does not come on after 30 minutes, this indicates a defective battery pack and should be replaced.
■ After normal usage, a minimum of 1 hour of charging time is required to fully recharge battery pack.
■ The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
■ Do not place charger and battery pack in an area
of extreme heat or cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.
Note: Charger and battery pack should be placed
in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than 100°F.
■ When batteries become fully charged, unplug charger from power supply and remove the bat tery paok.
INFORMATION FOR RECHARGING HOT
BATTERY PACK
When using your worklight continuously, the batteries In your battery pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately 30 min utes before attempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes discharged and is hot, this will cause the green LED to come on instead of the red LED. After 30 minutes, reinsert battery pack in charger, if green LED continues to remain on, return battery pack to your nearest Sears Repair Center for checking or replacing.
Note: This situation only occurs when continuous
use of your worklight causes the batteries to become hot. It does not occur under normal circumstances.
Refer to "CHARGING BATTERY PACK" for normal recharging of batteries. If the charger does not charge your battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest Sears Repair Center for electrical check.

MAINTENANCE

BATTERIES
Your worklight's battery pack is equipped with nickel cadmium rechargeable batteries. Length of service from each charging will depend on the type of work you are doing.
The batteries In this workllght have been designed to provide maximum trouble free life. However, like all batteries, they will eventually wear out. Do not disassemble battery pack and attempt to replace the
batteries. Handling of these batteries, especially when
wearing rings and jewelry, could result in a serious
burn.
To preserve natural resources,
please recycle or dispose of batteries properly.
This product contains nickel cadmium batteries. Local, state or federal laws may prohibit disposal of
nickel-cadmium batteries in ordinary
trash.
Consult your local waste authority for information regarding available recycling and/or disposal options.
To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following:
■ Store and charge your batteries In a cool area. Temperatures above or below normal room temperature will shorten battery life.
■ Never store batteries in a discharged condition.
Recharge them immediately after they are
discharged.
■ All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature the quicker they lose their charge. If you store your worklight for long periods of time without using it, recharge the batteries every month or two. This practice will prolong battery life.
BATTERY PACK REMOVAL AND
PREPARATION FOR RECYCLING
WARNING: Upon removal, cover the battery
A
pack's terminals with heavy duty adhesive tape. Do not attempt to destroy or disassemble battery pack or remove any of its components. Nickel cadmium batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Also, never touch both terminals with metal objects and/or body parts as short circuit may result. Keep away from children. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in fire and/or serious injury.
WARNING; Do not attempt to disassemble the battery pack. Fire or injury may result.
