18.Do not short across the terminals of the battery pack: EXTREMELY HIGH TEMPERATURES COULD CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY OR FIRE.

19.Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do

not change the plug in any way. Double Insulation

eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and ground- ed power supply system.

20.Dispose of expended batteries properly. The Delta Battery Packs contains rechargeable, nickel-cad- mium batteries. These batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Drop off expended battery packs at your local replacement battery retailer, your local recycling center, or at a Delta Service Center (see list on back page of this manual). Applicable fees for the col- lection and recycling of these batteries (in the United States), have been paid to the RBRC. For further infor- mation, call: 1-800-8-BATTERY.

CHARGING THE BATTERY

CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK GENERAL

Before using your cordless tool for the first time, the battery pack should be fully charged. If the battery pack is installed in the tool, remove it by following instructions under INSTALLING OR REMOVING BATTERY PACK.

As a battery pack approaches the discharged state, you will notice a sharp drop in tool performance. When the tool is unable to perform the task at hand, it is time to recharge the battery pack. Recharging the battery pack before this condition is reached will reduce the total work life of the pack. Discharging the pack beyond this point can damage the pack.

NOTE: Battery temperature will increase during and shortly after use. Batteries may not accept a full charge if they are charged immediately after use. Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature before charging for best results.

The battery charger must rest on the four pads provided on the bot- tom of the case. Vent slots in top and bottom of charger must not be obstructed. Do not charge battery when temperature is BELOW 40°F (4.4°C) or ABOVE 104°F (40°C).
