If not told different by the battery manufacturer, the quick charge current should be
2-2.5 times higher than the battery capacity (see page 6).
Attention
• Charge only rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries. Don’t charge any
other battery types.
Other battery types might get over charged and damaged.
• Quick charge only Ni-Cad batteries suitable for quick charge.
Other batteries might get damaged by quick charge.
• The Ni-Cad should be at room temperature before being charged.
• Only charge Ni-Cad batteries with 2-8 cells of the identical type
(manufacturer, capacity, voltage) together in one pack.
• In case the complete battery pack or single cells get far too hot, stop
the charging process.
•
Make sure that all connections are correct and can handle 6A.
• Never charge 2 battery packs parallel.
• Follow the instructions of the battery manufacturer.
• Due the super pulse charge current, the Ni-Cad battery can make
a buzzing noise when being charged. This is absolutely normal
and doesn’t hurt.

Safety Instructions
• Don’t open the case when connected to a mains – Danger to Life
• Not suitable for children under 14 years.
• Please allow the QUADRA-CHARGER to cool down for 10 minutes
between 2 quick charges.
• For quick charge take batteries out of their device.
• Never charge batteries being in devices that are switched on.
• Always observe the charging process.
• Disconnect the QUADRA-CHARGER from the 110/220/240V mains
or 12V supply when the charging process is finished. Don’t leave the
charger connected to the mains or car battery when not observed.
• Don’t bring the QUADRA-CHARGER in touch with water.
• Never cover the cooling openings. Allow sufficient air ventilation. Use
the charger only on a hard and temperature resistant surface.
Never place the charger on carpets or blankets.
• Use only in a horizontal position.
• The cooling fan must work during quick charge and discharge. A
broken or blocked fan leads to defects caused by over temperature.
• Connect batteries only to sockets belonging together. Don’t cross
connect any sockets not belonging together.
Short circuits cause danger.
• When using a 12V car battery, make sure that the Ni-Cad doesn’t get
in electrical contact with metal car parts (motor/bonnet/fender).
• New chargers might smell a little in the first hours of use.
Mains Connection (see Product Sticker)
1. QUADRA-CHARGER No. 4125 (Europe) + No. 4127 (GB)
These versions are only suitable for 200-240V mains and 12V. They
do not work properly when connected to 110V.
2. QUADRA-CHARGER No. 4129 (USA + Japan)
This version is only suitable for 105-125V mains and 12V. Never
connect to 220V since over voltage causes danger.
