For Appropriate use of Battery
pack
Ni-MH Battery pack (EY9251)
•Charge the Ni-MH battery fully before storage
in order to ensure a longer service life.
•The ambient temperature range is between 0°C

Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause sparks, burns or a fire.

operation time becomes extremely short after
recharging, replace the battery pack with a new one.

reduce operating capacity per charge.
•Even if you don't use the Metal Cutter, charge
the battery pack at least once every six months.
