3. Use only a soft, clean and dry brush to clean the battery
packs and charger, keeping away from all electrical
contacts. Certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful
to plastics and other insulated parts. Some of these
include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner,
chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household
detergents containing ammonia. Never use flammable
or combustible solvents around battery packs, battery
chargers or tools.

no serviceable parts.
Storage
Follow these recommendations for storing the grass trimmer.
• Clean the grass trimmer thoroughly before storing.
• Store the trimmer in a stable and safe location out of the
reach of children. Keep the trimmer in a dry place where the
temperature is not too hot or too cold.
• Do not store the grass trimmer resting against the floor.
Hang it by the upper handgrip so that the guard does not
touch anything. If the guard rests against a surface, its
shape and dimensions could be permanently altered, and
could render the machine unsafe to use.
B Charger Off-Season Storage
1.
Do not expose your battery packs or charger to water,
rain or allow them to get wet. This could permanently
damage the charger and the battery pack. Do not use oil
or solvents to clean or lubricate your battery packs as the
plastic casing can become brittle and crack, causing a
serious risk of injury.
2. Store the battery packs and charger at room temperature
away from moisture. Do not store in damp locations where
corrosion of terminals may occur. As with other battery
pack types, permanent capacity loss can result if the pack
is stored for long periods of time at high temperatures
(over 120ºF/49ºC).
3.
iON+ 24VBAT-LTE lithium-ion battery packs maintain
their charge during storage longer than other battery
pack types. As a general practice, it is best to unplug the
battery charger and disconnect the battery pack when
they are not in use. Recharge the battery pack every 6
months to 50% capacity (2 lights on) during off-season
storage to maintain optimal battery performance.
Battery C Disposal
Always dispose of your battery packs according to federal,
state, and local regulations. Contact a recycling agency in your
area for recycling locations.
m
CAUTION!
Even discharged battery packs contain
some energy. Before disposing, use electrical tape to cover
the terminals to prevent the battery pack from shorting, which
could cause a fire or explosion.
m
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury or explosion,
never burn or incinerate a battery pack even if it is damaged,
dead or completely discharged. When burned, toxic fumes and
materials are emitted into the surrounding atmosphere.
1. Batteries vary according to device. Consult your manual
for specific information.
2. Install only new batteries of the same type in your product

3. Failure to insert batteries in the correct polarity, as
indicated in the battery compartment or manual, may
shorten the life of the batteries or cause batteries to leak.
4.
Do not mix old and new batteries.
5.
Do not mix Alkaline, Standard (Carbon-Zinc) or
Rechargeable (Nickel Cadmium, Nickel Metal Hydride,
or Lithium-Ion) batteries.
6.
Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
7. Batteries should be recycled or disposed of as per state
and local guidelines.
