BATTERIES

The battery pack for this tool 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  tool  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:

n

  Remove the battery pack from the charger once it is fully 

charged and ready for use.

For battery storage longer than 30 days:

n

  Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 

80°F. 

n

  Store battery packs in a "discharged" condition.
