MAINTENANCE

BATTERIES

Your worklight's battery pack is equipped with nickel-
cadmium rechargeable batteries. Length of service
from each charging will depend on the type of work
you are doing.

The batteries in this worklight 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.

To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest
the following:

Store and charge your batteries in a cool area.
Temperatures above or below normal room
temperature will shorten battery life.

Never store batteries in a discharged condition.
Recharge them immediately after they are
discharged.

All batteries gradually lose their charge. The
higher the temperature the quicker they lose their
charge. If you store your worklight for long periods
of time without using it, recharge the batteries
every month or two. This practice will prolong
battery life.

BATTERY PACK REMOVAL AND
PREPARATION FOR RECYCLING

WARNING: 

Upon removal, cover the battery

pack's terminals with heavy duty adhesive tape.
Do not attempt to destroy or disassemble battery
pack or remove any of its components. Nickel-
cadmium batteries must be recycled or disposed
of properly. Also, never touch both terminals with
metal objects and/or body parts as short circuit
may result. Keep away from children. Failure to
comply with these warnings could result in fire
and/or serious injury.

WARNING:
