[Battery Pack]

For Appropriate Use of Battery pack

Li-ion Battery pack (EY9L41)

- For optimum battery life, store the Li-ion battery pack following use without charging it. - When charging the battery pack, confirm that the terminals on the battery charger are free of foreign substances such as dust and water etc. Clean the terminals before charging the battery pack if any foreign substances are found on the terminals.

The life of the battery pack terminals may be affected by foreign substances such as dust and water etc. during operation.

- When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns or a fire.

• When operating the battery pack, make sure the work place is well-ventilated.
• When the battery pack is removed from the main body of the tool, replace the battery pack cover immediately in order to prevent dust or dirt from contaminating the battery terminals and causing a short circuit.

Battery Pack Life

The rechargeable batteries have a limited life. If the operation time becomes extremely short after recharging, replace the battery pack with a new one.

Battery Recycling

ATTENTION:

For environmental protection and recycling of materials, be sure that it is disposed of at an officially assigned location, if there is one in your country.

[Battery Charger] Charging

Common Cautions for the Li-ion/Ni-MH/Ni-Cd Battery Pack

• If the temperature of the battery pack falls approximately below -10^ (14°F), charging will automatically stop to prevent degradation of the battery.
• The ambient temperature range is between 0^ (32°F) and 40^ (104°F). If the battery pack is used when the battery temperature is below 0^ (32°F), the tool may fail to function properly.
• When charging a cool battery pack (below 0^ (32°F)) in a warm place, leave the battery pack at the place and wait for more than one hour to warm up the battery to the level of the ambient temperature.
• Cool down the charger when charging more than two battery packs consecutively.
• Do not insert your fingers into contact hole, when holding charger or any other occasions.

CAUTION:

To prevent the risk of fire or damage to the battery charger.

• Do not use power source from an engine generator.
• Do not cover vent holes on the charger and the battery pack.
• Unplug the charger when not in use.

Li-ion Battery Pack
