WARNING
PARTS INSIDE. Preventive
maintenance performed by unauthorized
personnel may result in misplacing of
internal wires and components which
could cause serious hazard. We recom-
mend that all tool service be performed by a
Skil Factory Service Center or Authorized Skil
Service Station. SERVICEMEN: Disconnect
tool and/or charger from power source before
servicing.
BATTERIES
Be alert for battery packs that are nearing
their end of life. If you notice decreased tool
performance or significantly shorter running
time between charges then it is time to
replace the battery pack. Failure to do so can
cause the tool to operate improperly or
damage the charger.
Long term battery storage should be in the
discharged state. Battery packs last longer
and re-charge better when they are stored
discharged. Remember to fully re-charge
battery packs before using after prolonged
storage.

adequate size conductors that is capable
of carrying the current necessary for your

excessive voltage drop, loss of power or
overheating. Grounded tools must use 3-
wire extension cords that have 3-prong plugs
and receptacles.
NOTE: The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.
