LED red - steady
= -Temperature of battery pack is outside
permissible limit.
If the battery pack is removed from the
charging chamber during charging, charg-
ing can only be continued after 1-2 seconds
when the LED shows a steady yellow.
By the infl uence of powerful electromag-
netic perturbations while charging it can be
switched over to conservation charge.
Thereby the charger can not take in a dan-
gerous or unsafe status.
Charging
Connect charger to mains.
Warning: The line voltage and frequency
must correspond with the data on the rat-
ings plate!
Insert battery pack into charging
chamber:
Insert battery pack with the fi n (1.3 or 1.5)
in the lower groove (1.12) of the charging
chamber.
Push battery pack into charging chamber
until it catches with the lock (1.8 or 1.7) in
the groove (1.10 or 1.11).
The battery pack is now charged.
Press the button (1.4 or 1.6) to unlock it
and remove it from the charger.
3 lnstructions on application - main-
tenance - care
The equipment is generally maintenance-
free. To ensure trouble-free operation we
recommend that the following instructions
be adhered to:
• Keep the air vents clean to guarantee the
air circulation for cooling.
• Keep the connection contacts clean.
• Festool chargers and Festool battery packs
are designed for each other. Therefore,
only use Festool chargers to charge Fes-
tool battery packs.
• By keeping the battery pack in a ready for
use charger, the battery pack will be kept
in a state of readiness by fl oat charging
conservation.
• Do not keep discharged battery pack
(maximum one month) attached to charg-
er whenever charger is detached from the
power supply (danger of deep discharging).
• Whenever two battery packs are inserted
into the quick charger they will be charged
in the order of insertion.
• A new battery pack or a battery pack not
used for a longer period of time reaches
it full capacity after about 5 charging and
discharging cycles.
• Battery packs should, before charging, be
fully discharged if possible. Continuous
starting of the charging process shortens
the lifespan of the batteries.
• Do not expose battery packs to direct rays
of the sun or high temperatures - Tem-
peratures over 45°C will shorten the life
of the battery.
• All maintenance and repair work, requir-
ing dismantling of equipment, may only
be performed by an authorised after-sales
service workshop.
4 Recycling battery packs
Never throw spent battery packs into
domestic waste containers!
Return spent or defective battery packs
to dealers, the Festool after-sales service
department or approved waste disposal
facilities. This ensures that they are cor-
rectly recycled.
5 Warranty
Our equipment is under warranty for at
least 12 months with regard to material or
production faults in accordance with nati-
onal legislation. In the EU countries, the
warranty period is 24 months (an invoice
or delivery note is required as proof of
purchase). Damage resulting from, in par-
ticular, normal wear and tear, o-verloading,
improper handling, or caused by the user
or other damage caused by not following
the operating instructions, or any fault ack-
nowledged at the time of purchase, is not
covered by the warranty. Damage caused
by the use of non-original accessories and
consumable material (e.g. sanding pads) is
also excluded. Complaints will only be ack-
nowledged if the equipment has not been
dismantled before being sent back to the
suppliers or to an authorised Festool custo-
mer support workshop. Store the operating
instructions, safety notes, spare parts list
and proof of purchase in a safe place. In
addition, the manufacturer‘s current war-
ranty conditions apply.
