Obtaining the longest life from the battery
Never allow the rotary tool to come to a complete stand still before recharging. The battery should be placed on charge whenever the battery is noticeably running down or the rotary tool no longer performs a task it previously performed.
Avoid conducting short charges. Make sure that the battery is fully charged every time by allowing the charger to complete its full charging cycle.
Avoid allowing lose items like screws or nails etc to be stored with battery packs as these or similar items can short battery packs and cause a fire or explosion.
Always unplug the charger when not in use and store in a dry secure place.
Avoid charging or storing your battery in temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or greater than 40°C (104°F).
Operation
WARNING. Before connecting the tool to a power source (power point, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user, as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
