7. Storage
Storing in a place below 104°F (40°C) and out of the
reach of children.
NOTE
Make sure that the battery is fully charged when
stored for a long period (3 months or more). The
battery with smaller capacity may not be able to be
charged when used, if stored for a long period.
NOTE
Storing lithium-ion batteries
Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully
charged before storing them.
Prolonged storage of batteries with a low charge
may result in performance deterioration, signifi cantly
reducing battery usage time or rendering the batteries
incapable of holding a charge.
However, signifi cantly reduced battery usage time
may be recovered by repeatedly charging and using
the batteries two to fi ve times.
If the battery usage time is extremely short despite
repeated charging and use, consider the batteries
dead and purchase new batteries.

All quality power tools will eventually require servicing
or replacement of parts because of wear from normal
use. To assure that only authorized replacement parts
will be used, all service and repairs must be performed
by a metabo HPT AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER,
ONLY.
