Maintenance - Ryobi p111 Operator's Manual

CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK
When using a tool continuously, the batteries in the battery
pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack
cool down for approximately 30 minutes before attempting
to recharge.
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical Ryobi replacement
parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or
cause product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields during power tool operation or when blowing
dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the
battery pack from the tool when cleaning or performing
any maintenance.
BATTERIES
This charger will accept Ryobi One + 18 V nickel-cadmium
batteries. Length of service from each charging will depend
on the type of work you are doing.
Batteries 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:
 Remove the battery pack from the charger once it is fully
charged and ready for use.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
 Store the battery pack where the temperature is below
80°F.
 Store battery packs in a "discharged" condition.
OPERATION
NOTE: This situation only occurs when continuous use of a
tool causes the batteries to become hot. It does not occur
under normal circumstances. Refer to "CHARGING A COOL
BATTERY PACK" for normal recharging of batteries.

MAINTENANCE

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal
injury.
Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be
repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts should
be replaced at an Authorized Service Center.
BATTERY PACK REMOVAL AND
PREPARATION FOR RECYCLING
Consult your local waste authority for information regarding
available recycling and/or disposal options.
Upon removal, cover the battery pack's terminals with
heavy-duty adhesive tape. Do not attempt to destroy
or disassemble battery pack or remove any of its com-
ponents. Nickel-cadmium batteries must be recycled or
disposed of properly. Also, never touch both terminals
with metal objects and/or body parts as short circuit may
result. Keep away from children. Failure to comply with
these warnings could result in fire and/or serious injury.
