BATTERY PACK
The battery pack for your hedge trimmer is
equipped with nickel--cadmium rechargeable
batteries. Length of service from each charg-
ing will depend on the type of work you are do-
ing.
The battery in this tool has been designed to
provide maximum trouble--free life. However,
like all batteries, it will eventually wear out. Do
not disassemble battery pack and/or attempt
to replace the batteries.
To obtain the longest possible battery life:
S Do not store or charge the battery pack in
an area of extreme heat or cold. It will work
best at normal room temperature.
S Never store battery pack in a discharged
condition. Recharge the battery pack im-
mediately after use.
S All batteries gradually lose their charge.
The higher the temperature, the quicker
they will lose their charge. If you store your
hedge trimmer for long periods without us-
ing it, recharge the battery pack every
month to help prolong battery life.
