more than one month, remove the
battery, fully charge it, and then
place it in a cool, dry place.
NOTICE: When removing the
battery, be sure to turn the main
switch off, then disconnect the
negative lead before discon-
necting the positive lead.

ing the battery, be sure to turn
the main switch off, then con-
nect the positive lead before
