BATTERY PROTECTION FEATURES
Lithium-ion battery packs are designed with features that
protect the lithium-ion cells and maximize battery life.
If the tool stops during use, release the trigger to reset and
resume operation. If the tool still does not work, the battery
needs to be recharged.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
The lithium-ion battery pack can be used in temperatures
down to –4°F. Put the battery pack on a tool and use the tool
in a light duty application. After about a minute, the pack will
warm up and begin operating normally.

CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to pre-
vent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge prior
to first use. If the charger does not charge the battery pack
under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack
and charger to your nearest Authorized Service Center for
electrical check.
Charge the battery pack only with the recommended
charger.
Refer to charger operator's manual for charging
instructions.
CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK
When using a tool continuously, the battery pack may be-
come hot. A hot battery pack may be placed directly onto
the charger port but charging will not begin until the battery
temperature cools to within acceptable temperature range.

MAINTENANCE
BATTERIES
These 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 and away from moisture.
Store battery packs in a 30%-50% charged condition.
Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.
