SAFETY RULES & PRECAUTIONS

Safety and Care

This appliance can not be used by persons with reduced physical sensory, mental capabilities or lack of experience and

knowledge. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children.

WARNING

When using the battery charger, the following basic safety precautions should be observed for protection against electric

shock, danger of injury, and burns.

• Please read and observe these instructions before using the device.

• Ony the following battery packs can be charged with this charger: BRAT36v6250, BRAT36v6251, BRAT36v6500.

• This charger is only to be used indoor under dry conditions.

• This charger is not intended to charge any other type of battery and should never be used in explosive or inﬂammable

environments.

• Non-rechargeable batteries cannot be charged with this battery charger.

• To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do not immerse the unit, cord or plug in water or other liquid.

• Before using the device check that the mains cable and mains plug are not damaged.

• The device must not be damp, and it should not be used in a damp environment.

• Do not use the device if it has suffered any heavy shock or jolting, or is damaged in any other way.

• Due to the heat generated during charging, the battery charger should not be operated on a combustible surface

• or in an inﬂammable environment.

• Do not cover the ventilating slits.

• Never disassemble the device yourself. Danger of an electric shock or ﬁre could be caused by improper reassembly.

• When the appliance is not in use and before cleaning and maintenance, unplug the appliance from the outlet.

• During charging, the battery pack with charger must be placed in a well-ventilated area. Malfunction during charging

can be caused by storing and operating in places where the temperature exceeds +40 °C; this should be avoided.

Battery charging in closed cupboards, near heat sources (radiators, bright sunshine) etc., causes heat to accumulate

and can damage the device.

• If the battery is not going to be used for a longer period, pull the battery off the battery charger and disconnect the

mains plug.

• Protect battery contacts to avoid a short circuit caused by a metallic object that can cause a ﬁre or explosion.

• Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or signs onto the device. The protective insulation can thereby be rendered

ineffective. Adhesive labels are recommended.

Safety and Care (continued)

• If the mains cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualiﬁed persons

in order to avoid a hazard.

WARNING

Do not insert any object into the ventilation slots or charging connector. This can cause damage to the appliance and may

increase the risk of personal injury and property damage.

WARNING

Do not alter or modify the unit from the original design or function. This may increase the risk of serious personal injury or

property damage.

WARNING

Before you plug in your product, make sure that the supply voltage used corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate.

Speciﬁed Conditions of Use

The product is intended only for charging the 36 V Li-Ion battery packs. See TECHNICAL DATA for details.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualiﬁed persons in

order to avoid a hazard.

WARNING

Do not allow familiarity with products to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufﬁcient to

inﬂict serious injury.

WARNING

Do not use any attachments or accessories not recommended by the manufacturer of this product. The use of attachments

or accessories not recommended can result in serious personal injury.

WARNING

Never operate the charger where there is a possibility of inﬂammable or explosive gases or vapour. Keep well away from

petroleum, paint and cleaning supplies, and gas-ﬁred heating systems.

WARNING

Charge in a well-ventilated area. Do not block charger vents. Keep them clear to allow proper ventilation.

SAFETY RULES & PRECAUTIONS

Charging The Battery Pack

Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge them until

the green LED on the front of the charger comes on.

Charging A Hot Battery Pack

When using a tool continuously, the batteries in the battery pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool

down for approximately 30 minutes before attempting to recharge.

NOTE: This situation only occurs when continuous use of a tool causes the batteries to become hot. It does not occur under

normal circumstances. Refer to CHARGING A COOL BATTERY PACK for normal recharging of batteries. If the charger does

not charge the battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and the charger to your nearest

authorised service centre for electrical check.

Charging A Cool Battery Pack

Only charge the 36v Li-ion battery packs with this charger. Make sure the power supply is normal household voltage, 240v,

50 / 60Hz, AC only. Make sure the battery pack is secured in the charger before beginning operation.

• Connect the charger to the power supply.

• Place the battery pack in the charger, aligning the raised rib on the battery pack with the groove in the charger.

• Slide in the battery pack to be sure contacts on the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the charger.

NOTE: After charging is complete, the green charger LED will remain on until the battery pack is removed from the charger

or charger is disconnected from the power supply. The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging.

This is normal and does not indicate a problem. Do not place the charger and the battery pack in an area of extreme hot or

cold. They will work best at normal room temperature.

NOTE: The charger and battery pack should be placed in a location where the temperature is more than 10°C but less than

40°C.

• When batteries become fully charged, unplug the charger from the power supply and remove the battery pack.

Compatible Battery Packs

BRAT36v6251 - 2.5Ah Large Skin - 10 cells.

BRAT36v6500 - 5.0Ah - 20 cells.

Battery Protection Features

36 V lithium-ion batteries are designed with features that protect the lithium-ion cells and maximize battery life. If the

tool stops during use, release the trigger to reset and resume operation. If the tool still does not work, the battery needs to

be recharged.

WARNING

If at any point during the charging process none of the LEDs are lit, remove the battery pack from the charger to avoid

damaging the product. Do not insert another battery. Return the charger and battery to your nearest Bushranger
