Charging (Fig. 1)

Charge the battery cartridge with the Makita charger before use.

1. Plug the battery charger into the proper AC voltage source. The charging light will flash in green color.

2. Insert the battery cartridge so that the plus and minus terminals on the battery cartridge are on the same sides as their respective markings on the charger.

4. When the charging light changes from red to green, the charging cycle is complete.

5. After charging, unplug the charger from the power source.

NOTE:

• The battery charger is for charging Makita battery

cartridge. Never use it for other purposes or for other manufacturer's batteries.

• If you charge a battery cartridge from a just operated

tool or a battery cartridge which has been exposed to direct sunlight or heat for a long time, the charging light may flash in red color. If this occurs, wait for a while. Charging will begin after the battery cartridge cools.

• If the charging light flashes alternately in green and

red, charging is not possible. The terminals on the charger or battery cartridge are clogged with dust or the battery cartridge is worn out or damaged.

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the

battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or checking function on the tool.

place with a little click. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone around you.
