2.2 Battery Charging and Storage
Battery life and charge capacity will be greatly extended by following the optimal operating,
charging and storage temperature ranges stated in Section 1.2 - Specifications.
Depending on age, ambient operating conditions and care, a fully charged battery should
have a stand-by life of 1-2 weeks.
Depending on the above mentioned factors and in addition to run-down time, a fully charged
battery should have an operation usage of several thousand bolts.
2.3 Battery Removal and Replacement
If the tool and battery guidelines are followed, the battery life should exceed the normal re-
calibration interval of the tool. As a preventative measure the battery should be replaced by
New World Technologies or Authorized Service Centre at the desired re-calibration interval
and only be replaced with an NWT approved battery.
The user should not replace the battery at any time without NWT approval.
