BATTERIES
Your drill's battery pack is equipped with 13 nickel-
cadmium rechargeable
batteries. Length of service from
each charging will depend on the type of work you are
doing.
The batteries in this tool have been designed to provide
maximum trouble free life. However, like all batteries, they
will eventually wear out. Do not disassemble battery pack
and attempt to replace the batteries. Handling of these
batteries, especially when wearing rings and jewelry,
could result in a serious burn.
To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the
following:
•
Store and charge your batteries in a cool area.
Temperatures above normal room temperature will
shorten battery life.
•
Never store batteries in a discharged condition.
Recharge them immediately after they are
discharged.
•
All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher
the temperature the quicker they lose their charge. If
you store your tool for long periods of time without
using it, recharge the batteries every month or two.
This practice will prolong battery life.
