NOTE: Immediately after using the battery pack,
the Fuel Gauge may display a lower charge than
it will if checked a few minutes later. The battery
cells "recover" some of their charge after resting.
Battery Pack Protection
To protect itself from damage and extend its life, the
battery pack's intelligent circuit monitors current draw
and temperature. In extremely high torque, binding,
stalling, and short circuit situations, the battery pack
will turn OFF the tool if the current draw becomes
too high. All the fuel gauge lights will flash. Release
the trigger and restart.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal tem-
perature of the battery could become too high. If
this happens, the fuel gauge lights will flash in an
alternating pattern and the tool will not run. Allow
the battery to cool down.

Cold Weather Operation
ALBION Lithium-Ion battery packs are designed
to operate in temperatures below freezing. When
the battery pack is too cold, it may need to warm
up before normal use. Put the battery on a tool and
use the tool in a light application. It may "buzz" for
a short time until it warms up. When the buzzing
stops, use the tool normally.
12V AND 18V
Maintenance and Storage
Do not expose your battery pack or cordless tools
to water or rain, or allow them to get wet. This could
damage the tool and battery pack. Do not use oil
or solvents to clean or lubricate your battery pack.
The plastic casing will become brittle and crack,
causing a risk of injury.
Store battery packs at room temperature away from
moisture. Do not store in damp locations where cor-
rosion of terminals may occur. As with other battery
pack types, permanent capacity loss can result if
the pack is stored for long periods of time at high
temperatures (over 120° F). ALBION Lithium-Ion
battery packs maintain their charge during storage
longer than other battery pack types. After about a
year of storage, charge the pack as normal.
Transport
Personal transport of Li-Ion battery packs is al-
lowed when done in accordance with these warn-
ings and instructions. The proper classification,
packaging, labeling, marking, and documenta-
tion requirements for shipping Li-Ion batteries is
dependent upon whether the particular batter-
ies are rated greater than or less than 100 Wh.
Generally, Li-Ion batteries rated 100 Wh or less
are "excepted" from certain Class 9 DG require-
ments. Always check compliance of Li-Ion battery

consignments against the current regulations
governing the chosen mode of transport. When
in doubt, contact the carrier or another trained
Dangerous Goods professional to confirm accept-
ability. Li-Ion packs are shipped under classifica-
tion UN 3480 (battery only) or UN 3481 (batteries
contained in or packed with equipment).
WARNING
jury or explosion, never burn or incinerate
a battery pack even if it is damaged, dead or
completely discharged. When burned, toxic
fumes and materials are created.
Disposing of ALBION Li-Ion Battery Packs
ALBION Lithium-Ion battery packs are more envi-
ronmentally friendly than some other types of power
tool battery packs (e.g., nickel-cadmium). Always
dispose of your battery pack according to federal,
state and local regulations. Contact a recycling
agency in your area for recycling locations.
Even discharged battery packs contain some
energy. Before disposing, use electrical tape to
cover the terminals to prevent the battery pack from
shorting, which could cause a fire or explosion.
RBRC Battery Recycling Seals
The RBRC™ Battery Recycling Seals (see "Sym-
bology") on your tool battery packs indicate that
ALBION has arranged for the recycling of that
battery pack with the Rechargeable Battery Re-
cycling Corporation (RBRC). At the end of your
battery pack's useful life, return the battery pack
to an ALBION Branch Office/Service Center or the
participating retailer nearest you. For more infor-
mation, visit the RBRC web site at www.rbrc.org.

When to Charge the Battery Pack with this
ALBION Charger
Remove the battery pack from the tool for charging
when convenient for you and your job. ALBION bat-
teries do not develop a "memory" when charged af-
ter only a partial discharge. It is not necessary to run
down the battery pack before placing it on the charger.
• Use the Fuel Gauge (on the battery pack or tool)
to determine when to charge your ALBION Li-Ion
battery pack.
• You can "Top-Off" your battery pack's charge
before starting a big job or long day of use.
• The only time it is necessary to charge the
ALBION Lithium-Ion battery pack is when the
battery pack has reached the end of its charge.
To signal the end of charge, power to the tool will
drop quickly, allowing you just enough power to
finish making a cut, drilling a hole, or driving a
fastener. Charge the battery pack as needed.
