BATTERIES
Your screwdriver is equipped with 4 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
batteries, see page 11, Battery Removal. 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:
■ Store and charge your batteries in a cool area.
Temperatures above normal room temperature
will shorten battery life.
■ Never store batteries in a discharged condition.
Recharge them immediately after they are dis­
charged,
■ All batteries gradually lose their charge. The
higher the temperature, the quicker they lose their
charge. If you store your tool for long periods of
time without using it, recharge the batteries every
month or two. This practice will prolong battery
life.
