The LED (3.2) indicates the respective charg-

ing state of the charger.

LED yellow – steady:

charger is ready for use.

LED green – ﬂ ashing:

battery pack being charged.

LED green – steady:

battery pack fully charged, conservation charge

on.

LED red – ﬂ ashing:

general malfunction, e. g. full contact not being

made, short-circuit, battery pack faulty.

LED red – steady:

temperature of battery pack is outside permis-

sible limit.

It is essential that you read the in-

structions in the Chapter „Maintenance - Care“.

Bit storage well

You can insert several bits or bit extensions into

the bit magazine (4.1) with magnetic holder.

Maintenance and care

Pay attention to the following instruc-

tions. Otherwise there is a risk of damage to the

tool, charger or battery pack.

• Repairs may only be performed by authorised

technicians. LC 45 charging device: Even after

disconnection from the mains, there is still a

high capacitor voltage on the power output

component on the inside of the device.

• Keep the air vents of the electronic equipment

and the charger clean to guarantee the air cir-

culation for cooling.

• No metal objects (metal chips) should enter the

charger at the contact points as well as through

the cooling slits into the equipment (danger of

short circuit).

• Only use original Festool battery packs. Do not

use spent and recycled battery packs. The user

shall be liable for damages if Festool original

battery packs are not used.

• Keep the connection contacts of electronic

equipment, charger and battery pack clean.

• 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 charger whenever char-

ger is detached from the power supply (danger

of deep discharging).

• A new battery pack or a battery pack not used

for a longer period of time reaches it full ca-

pacity 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.

• A considerably reduced time of operation per

charging shows that the battery pack is used

up an should be replaced by a new one.

• NiCd battery packs that are not used for lon-

ger periods should be stored in a discharged

state.

Special instructions for NiMH battery

packs:

• The output of NiMH battery packs drops notice-

ably at ambient temperatures below 0° C or

above 45° C.

• Do not overload the tool (do not load the tool

excessively so that it comes to a standstill).

• Even if NiMH battery packs are not used, re-

charge them approx. every 4 months so that

they retain their full capacity.

• NiMH battery packs should be left for 60 min.

in the charger after every 10th fast charge to

compensate any differences in capacity be-

tween the cells.

• Because NiMH battery packs discharge auto-

matically, store them preferably at ambient

temperatures of between 0° C and 25° C.

Recycling battery packs

Never throw spent battery packs into domes-

tic 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 correctly

recycled.
