Charging batteries

Warning: Use only the original charger to charge the batteries supplied by the manufacturer. Only batteries and chargers designed by Bormann can be used in conjunction with this product.
The use of any other types of batteries / chargers in combination with this product is considered abuse and will void the warranty. Once connected to the power supply, the battery can be recharged without the need for monitoring. The complex construction of the circuit monitors the condition of the battery by adjusting the recharge current to match the requirements. When the recharge cycle is complete and to maintain full capacity, a low-voltage output current will continue to be powered as needed.

Warning!

• Check the status of the charger and battery before each charge. If there is any indication of a fault then do not continue, seek advice from an authorized vendor.

Battery pack efficiency and charging advice
Recharge the battery packs before they become completely exhausted When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge the battery packs. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery pack may become damaged. Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery pack will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery pack is recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery pack and recharge it after it has cooled for a while. The battery pack should only be used and/or charged when battery pack temperature is between 50C and 300C. The battery pack needs to be warmed-up or cooled down in order to prevent damage to the batteries internal components.

Note: Failure to warm up or cool down a battery pack could result in serious damage to tie battery, charger and user.

• Replace all damaged or worn parts to ensure the power tool is always ready for safe operation.
• Clean ventilation slots and openings with a brush.
• DO NOT use any solvents or cleaning agents containing chemicals that could damage the plastic parts. Wipe the housing clean with a cloth.
• Always store the leaf blower in a dry, frost-free location beyond the reach of children.
• Store and charge your rechargeable batteries at a cool location. Temperatures above or below normal room temperature shorten the lifespan of recharge-able batteries.
• Do not store rechargeable batteries when discharged. Wait until the rechargeable battery has cooled down and charged it completely.
• Rechargeable batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature, the quicker they lose their charge. For longer storage periods, recharge the rechargeable battery every one or two months. This will extend the lifespan of the rechargeable battery.
