BATTERIES
These batteries have been designed to provide maximum
trouble-free life. However, like all batteries, they will
eventually wear out. Do not disassemble battery pack
and attempt to replace the batteries. Handling of these
batteries, especially when wearing rings and jewelry, could
result in a serious burn.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
Store the battery pack where the temperature is below
80°F and away from moisture.
Store battery packs in a 30%-50% charged condition.
Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.

Upon removal, cover the battery
pack’s terminals with heavy-duty adhesive tape. Do

OPERATION
MAINTENANCE
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.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
The lithium-ion battery pack can be used in temperatures
down to 14°F (-10°C). Put the battery pack on a tool
and use the tool in a light duty application. After about
a minute, the pack will warm up and begin operating
normally.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
See Figure 1.
Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to
prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge
prior to first use. If the charger does not charge the battery
pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery
pack and charger to your nearest Authorized Service
Center for electrical check.
Charge the battery pack only with the recommended
charger.
Refer to charger operator’s manual for charging
instructions.
CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK
When using a tool continuously, the battery pack may
become hot. A hot battery pack may be placed directly
onto the charger port but charging will not begin until
the battery temperature cools to within acceptable
temperature range. When a hot battery pack is placed
on the charger, the charger may indicate the pack is
not ready to charge. Please refer to charger operator’s
manual. When the battery pack cools, the charger will
automatically begin charging.
