CHARGING
The VERSASTACK™ RADIO + CHARGER can only charge CRAFTSMAN
®
20V MAX* Lithium-ion
rechargeable battery packs, including CRAFTSMAN
®
Battery packs up to 4Ah. Use of any other battery
packs or any non-rechargeable batteries may create a risk of injury or fire. Be sure to read all safety
instructions before using this appliance for charging your battery pack.
NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion battery packs, charge the battery
pack fully before first use.
IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when room
temperature is between 65
o
F and 75
o
F (18-24
o
C). DO NOT charge the battery pack below 40
o
F
(4.5
o
C), or above 104
o
F (40
o
C). This is important and will prevent serious
damage to the battery pack.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside of the specied range may damage the battery
and increase the risk of re.
2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to the touch while charging. This is a normal
condition and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use,
avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal shed or an
uninsulated trailer.
3. A cold battery pack will charge at about half the rate of a warm battery pack. The battery pack
will charge at that slower rate throughout the entire charging cycle and will not return to maximum
charge rate even if the battery pack warms.
If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Make sure power source is working by plugging a different appliance to the same source.
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you
turn out the lights.
c. Move the charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is
approximately 75–65oF (24-18oC).
d. If charging problems persist, take the battery pack and charger to your local service center.
4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufcient power on jobs which
were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use the pack under these conditions. You
may also charge a partially used pack with no adverse effect on the battery pack.
5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips,
steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger
cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply before attempting to clean.
6. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.
7. Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modied. Damaged or modied
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in re, explosion or risk of injury.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Don’t allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock
may result.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Do not submerge the battery pack in any liquid or allow any liquid to
enter the battery pack. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic
housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.
CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the
same or equivalent type.
