For Appropriate use of Battery
pack
Ni-MH Battery pack
(EY9200/EY9201/EY9230/EY9231)
Charge the Ni-MH battery fully be-
fore storage in order to ensure a
longer service life.
The ambient temperature range
is between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C
(104°F).
If the battery pack is used when the
battery temperature is below 0°C
(32°F), the tool may fail to function
properly. In that case, charge the
battery until charging is completed
for appropriate functioning of the
battery.
When battery pack is not in use,
keep it away from other metal objects
like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects
that can make a connection from one
terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals togeth-
er may cause sparks, burns or a fire.
When operating with a Ni-MH bat-
tery pack, make sure the place is
well-ventilated.
Battery Pack Life
The rechargeable batteries have a
limited life. If operation time becomes
extremely short after recharging, replace
the battery pack with a new one.
Note:
Use under extremely hot or cold
conditions will reduce operating
capacity per charge.
Battery Recycling
ATTENTION:
For environmental protection and
recycling of materials, be sure that it
is disposed of at an officially assigned
location, if there is one in your country.
Charging
Note:
When you charge the battery pack
for the first time, or after prolonged
storage, charge it for about 24
hours to bring the batteries up to
full capacity.
