Battery and Charging System

The Duo-Fast
Cordless tools come with a recharge-
®
able battery and its own charging system. This
charging system is the only one that will work with
Duo-Fast
batteries. The first step in preparing a
®
new tool for operation is to fully charge the battery.
New batteries are shipped discharged and must be
charged prior to first use.
Batteries will take 5 minutes to 2 hours (time will
be dependant on the amount of discharge of the
battery) to recharge.
Important Charging Notes
Battery Disposal:
TheDuo-Fast
batteries contain cadmium and must be
®
recycled or disposed of properly. It is illegal in some

or solid waste stream. You may contact your local
recycling center for information on where to return the
spent battery or call 1-800-822-8837 for information on
