battery life
1.  Charge the battery cartridge before completely 
discharged. Always stop tool operation and 
charge the battery cartridge when you notice 
less tool power.
2.  Never recharge a fully charged battery car-
tridge. Overcharging shortens the battery 
service life.

perature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let 
a hot battery cartridge cool down before 
charging it.

it for a long period (more than six months).
