ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
This product contains nickel cadmium
battery cells like most cordless operated
products manufactured today. These cells
allow your new product to be recharged
many times during their normal life cycle.

is deeply concerned with the
protection of our environment. We ask you
to join us in helping to protect it. After your
product reaches the end of its life cycle, it
must be disposed of in a manner that will
not add to the pollution of our environment.
Under NO circumstances should any nickel
cadmium battery cells be disposed of in the
garbage or in landfills. Doing so will not
only contaminate our environment, but also
our children’s.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
For power, long operational life and light
weight your tool is powered by a Nickel-
cadmium battery pack.
Nickel-cadmium batteries are powerful,
rugged and will provide hundreds of
charge/discharge cycles if properly
maintained and periodically ‘exercised’.
Exercising is required to recover most of
the capacity lost during usage. This
process reduces the size the active
cadmium hydroxide crystals on the anode,
to expose all surface area and restore
capacity.
How to care for your Nickel-cadmium
battery
1. Never allow a battery to freeze.
2. Never charge a battery that has been
stored at or below 5° or above 40° C.
Allow it to sit at room temperature for
at least 30 minutes before charging.
3. Do not charge a battery if it feels
warm to the touch.
4. Never charge a battery after a short
use. Let it sit until it is needed again.
5. Never charge the battery until the tool
in which it is being used can not
produce useful work.
6. Do not leave a battery on the charger
after charging time has expired;
usually 3 to 4 hours. Your charger will
not damage the battery. However, the
heat it produces shortens the battery
operational life.
