NOTE
Battery and Charging Sytem
The Paslode Cordless tool comes with a recharge-
able battery and its own charging system. This
battery and charging system combination is the only
one that will work with the Cordless tool.
The first
step in preparing a new tool for operation is to fully
charge the battery. New batteries are shipped
discharged and must be charged prior to first
use. Batteries will take 5 minutes to 2 hours (time
will be dependant on the amount of discharge within
the battery) to recharge.
