CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
Charge the battery pack only with the charger provided.
Allow at least 80 minutes of charge time before initial use.
Make sure the power supply is normal household voltage,
120volts, 60Hz, AC only.
The battery charger should be operated in
temperatures between 39° F and 104° F.
The battery should be charged in a cool, dry place.
Two to three initial charging/discharging cycles may
be required to achieve maximum run time/capacity.
Do not attempt to open the charger or the unit. There are
no customer serviceable parts inside. Call the customer
service help line at 1-800-633-1501 for assistance.
DO NOT incinerate battery packs even if they are severely
damaged or completely worn out. They can explode in a
fire causing injury.
Use the battery charger indoors only.
Disconnect charger from the power supply when not in use
to prevent damage to the charger during a power surge.
When fully charged, the battery can be safely stored in
temperatures down to - 4° F for a period of up to
four weeks, before requiring charging.
Do not operate battery if it has received a sharp blow, been
dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; call our cus-
tom-er service help line at 1-800-633-1501 for assistance.
Fully charge battery pack every 90 days.
If over a period of time the battery pack quickly runs down
after a full 80 minute charging period, a replacement battery
pack is needed.
To prevent permanent damage to the battery,
never store in a fully discharged condition.
WINTER STORAGE -
Fully recharge before storage
and then again every 90 days.
Since the battery will not develop a memory, it does
not have to be fully discharged before recharging.
A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may occur
under extreme usage, charging or temperature conditions.
This does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer seal is
broken and this leakage gets on your skin.
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid
such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them
with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes and
seek immediate medical attention.
