Rechargeable battery pack
A long life battery pack must be recharged when it
fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which were
easily done before. At the end of its technical life,
discard it with due care for our environment:
• Run the battery pack down completely, then
remove it from the tool.
• NiCd and NiMH cells are recyclable. Take them
to your dealer or a local recycling station.
