Battery Disposal
THE RBRC® SEAL
The RBRC® (Rechargeable Battery
Recycling Corporation) Seal on the
nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride
or lithium-ion batteries (or battery
packs) indicates that the costs to recycle
these batteries (or battery packs) at the end
of their useful life have already been paid by the manufacturer.
In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel cadmium, nickel
metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries in the trash or municipal
solid waste stream and the Call 2 Recycle® program provides an
environmentally conscious alternative.
Call 2 Recycle, Inc., in cooperation with the manufacturer and
other battery users, has established the program in the United
States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel
cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries. Help
protect our environment and conserve natural resources by
returning the spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or
lithium-ion batteries to an authorized service center or to your
local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local
recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent
battery. RBRC® is a registered trademark of Call 2 Recycle, Inc.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT wash the snow blower with water. The
warranty will be voided if water is used on the snow blower.
IMPORTANT: When storing the snow blower or when it is
not being serviced, it is to remain in the upright position with
both wheels and auger housing on the ground.
NOTE: Refer to Battery Charger Operator’s Manual for
information on storing your batteries.
