1. Unsnap the black plastic tray on the bottom. Turn the unit face down. Loosen four screws along the bottom edge.
2. Loosen two screws in the handle and one screw on each side.
3. Use flat blade screwdriver to pry up black rubber bumper near the top (back side only) and loosen one screw underneath on each side.
4. Open the flat panel, remove any contents and loosen two screws at the back.
5. With all 12 screws loosened turn unit face up with bottom toward you and gently pry bottom apart. There are wires and tubes connected inside so just prop it open enough to work.

Just to play it safe I would NOT jump start while charging, It sounds like one would be putting out too much volts/amps ETC and could damage or the even kill the battery.

I just bought one similar and wondered the same thing. on the unit you will find two male prongs recessed into the case. Simply plug and extension cord into them, the 12v charger is built in. Mine said to charge for 36 hours before fist use.

I went to the Black & Decker site and downloaded the pdf manual of the electromate 400. It says you're supposed to charge it until you have one red light, one yellow light, and one green light. I expect that 2 red lights and a green light means it's not fully charged. The manual also said you can't overcharge using the 120 V. method. Good luck.

What are you talking about? You don't mention the electrical item.

Why does the AC indicator light constantly flash and I have no AC power on my Black and Decker Electormate 400

Yes, the difference is the air flow over the 1000 watt element, blow dryer, uses lots of air, heat gun uses a lesser airflow.

Have you tried it on another battery? Sounds like your old battery is stuffed!

Hi Brent- We would be happy to assist you with you further. Please email us at [email protected] and include your model number and exactly what it is you are asking. We would be happy to get back to you by email. Thanks

First I question what's the charger doing for whatever you are charging or is it charging? I would say if the only problem is a hum and all else is OK then don't worry, let it be.

It appears that you have adaptors for the blades that are the same thickness as the blades Place the adaptor in the centre and then put on the spindle and tighten up the plates onto the blade.

It means one of two things. Either you do not have a good connection from the charger to the battery, check and clean the clamps and terminals, or the battery has too low a charge. A smart charger needs to measure the existing charge before it will work.

A tommy bar is used to lock shaft whilst collett is tightened or reverse by spanner. Easier if motor unit removed from clamp assembly
