Battery and Charging System
The PaslodeCordless tools come with a recharge-
able battery and its own charging system. This
charging system is the only one that will work with
the Pasldoe batteries (either round or oval ). The first
step in preparing a new tool for operation is to fully
charge the battery. New batteries are shipped
discharged and must be charged prior to first
use, Batterieswill take 5 minutes to 2 hours (time
willbe dependant on the amount of dischargeof the
battery) to recharge.
