Inspection
When you receive your packaged charger housing
pocket replacement kit, inspect the shipping carton for
any signs of damage. Next, remove and check the contents of the packing case to be certain that all items
have been included. The contents are as follows:
• Pocket sub-assembly (Item 2, Figure 2)
• Label (Item 11, Figure 2)
• This Instruction Manual (68P81086C04)
• Multi-Unit Charger Operating Instructions
(68P81083C97).
Inspect the equipment thoroughly. If any part of the
equipment has been damaged in transit, report the
extent of the damage to the transportation company
immediately.
Tools Required
• 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers
• awl (used for screw alignment)
• battery
• torque driver
Charger Disassembly
1. Remove the power cord from the power source and
from the back of the charger.
2. Turn the charger upsidedown.
3. Using the 1/4” nut driver, remove the six #8 screws
(Item 10, Figure 2) from the perimeter of the bottom plate (Item 9, Figure 2) that secures the outer
housing (Item 1, Figure 2).
Note:
Do not remove or loosen any of the phillips head
screws.
4. Using the 5/16” nut driver, remove the four #10
screws from the center area of the bottom plate that
secures the pocket assembly (Item 2, Figure 2).
5. While supporting the bottom plate (Item 9, Figure
2), so it doesn’t fall out, return the charger to the
upright position, so that pockets face you.
6. Remove the housing (Item 1, Figure 2) and set it
aside.
7. Gently lift the old pocket assembly (Item 2, Figure
2), and note the positions of the connectors (see
Figure 1). Also, note the orientation of the two
metal brackets (under the pocket assembly) that
secure the pocket assembly to the baseplate assembly.
8. Gently unplug all connectors (P1, P2, P4, P5, and
P6, Figure 1) from the main printed circuit board,
and remove the old pocket assembly.
Charger Reassembly
1. With the new pocket assembly oriented as noted in
step 7 above (with inside of pockets facing you, and
LEDs up), gently plug in all connectors, starting
with the center connectors (P1, P6, P5) and followed by the outer connectors (P2 and P4) per Figures 1 and 2.
Note:
It may be easier to unplug the power supply to main
circuit board connector before connecting P1.
2. Inspect all connections to ensure that they are fully
mated, and if disconnected, reconnect the power
supply.
3. Turn the new housing pocket in a semi-circular
direction to clear all the wires and set it on the
charger base (Item 9, Figure 2).

4. Using the awl, align the holes in the brackets with
the holes in the charger base.
5. Using the 5/16” nut driver, start the four #10 screws
into the pocket assembly brackets (Item 12, Figure
2).
Note:
The new pocket assembly brackets are not threaded;
the #10 screws will form their own threads. Extra
torque may be required to start each screw. Do not
tighten at this time.
6. Replace the outer housing (Item 1, Figure 2).
7. Using the 1/4” nut driver, start the #8 screws (Item
10, Figure 2) that secure the outer housing. If necessary, use the awl to align the holes.
8. Tighten, but do not over-tighten all screws. The
four #10 screws should be tightened to 6-8 in-lbs,
and the six #8 screws should be tightened to 4-6 inlbs.
9. Remove the protective adhesive liner from the new
label (Item 11, Figure 2), and affix the new label
over the existing label on the bottom of the charger.
10. Plug-in the power cord and ensure that all the LEDs
light in sequence during the power-up cycle.
11. Ensure that each LED lights for its appropriate
pocket by alternately placing a battery in each
pocket. If the LED for the pocket adjacent to it
doesn’t light, a wiring error was made. Disassemble
the unit and rewire it per Figure 1.
