    11. Cover the machine to protect it and keep it clean.

    Battery Storage Requirements

    Note: You do not need to remove the batteries from the machine for storage.

    For temperature requirements for storage, refer to the following table:

    Temperature Requirements for Storage

    Storage ConditionsTemperature Requirement
    Normal storage conditions-20° to 45°C (-12° to 113°F)
    Extreme heat—1 month or less45° to 60°C (113° to 140°F)
    Extreme cold—3 months or less-30° to -20°C (-22° to -12°F)

    Important: Temperatures outside of this range will damage your batteries.The temperature at which the batteries are stored affects their long-term life. Storage for long periods of time at extreme temperatures will reduce the battery life. Store the machine in the normal storage conditions indicated in the table above.

    • Before you store the machine, charge or discharge the batteries between 40% to 60% (50.7V to 52.1V).

      Note: A 50% charge is optimal to ensure a maximum battery life. When the batteries are charged to 100% before storage, the battery life shortens.If you anticipate that the machine will be stored for a longer period of time, charge the batteries to around 60%.

    • For every 6 months of storage, check the battery-charge level and ensure that it is between 40% and 60%. If the charge is below 40%, charge the batteries between 40% to 60%.

    • After charging the batteries, disconnect the battery charger from power.

    • If you leave the charger on the machine, it shuts off after the batteries are fully charged and does not turn back on unless the charger is disconnected and reconnected.
