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
have warmed up and begin operating normally.
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.
