BATTERIES
The screwdriver is equipped with 3 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. To remove and dispose batteries,
follow BATTERY REMOVAL instructions. 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 tool 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.
