THE RBRC™ SEAL

The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the LI-ION or NI-CD battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by

PORTER-CABLE. RBRC™ in cooperation with PORTER-CABLE and other battery users, has established programs in the United States to facilitate the collection of spent LI- ION or NI-CD batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning the spent LI-ION or NI-CD battery to an authorized PORTER-CABLE service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may

also contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

With the motor running, blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with dry air. Wear safety glasses when performing this procedure. Exterior plastic parts may be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Although these parts are highly solvent resistant, NEVER use solvents.

Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
