    Storage

    Storing the Machine

    Important: Store the machine, battery pack, and charger only in temperatures that are within the appropriate range; refer to Specifications.

    Important: If you are storing the battery pack for the off-season, charge it until 2 or 3 LED indicators turn green on the battery. Do not store a fully charged or fully depleted battery. When you are ready to use the machine again, charge the battery pack until the left indicator light turns green on the charger or all 4 LED indicators turn green on the battery.

    • Disconnect the product from the power supply (i.e., remove the plug from the power supply or the battery pack), remove the key, and check for damage after use.

    • Clean all foreign material from the product.

    • Do not store the tool with the battery pack installed.

    • When not in use, store the machine, battery pack, key, and battery charger out of the reach of children.

    • Keep the machine, battery pack, key, and battery charger away from corrosive agents, such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts.

    • To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, do not store the battery pack outside or in vehicles.

    • Touch up chipped surfaces with paint available from an Authorized Service Dealer. Sand affected areas before painting, and use a rust preventative to prevent the metal parts from rusting.

    • Tighten all loose screws, bolts, and locknuts. Repair or replace any damaged parts.

    • Store the machine, battery pack, key, and battery charger in an enclosed clean, dry area.

    Preparing the Battery Pack for Recycling
