What do I do when no spare batteries before lift work?

Tools, Fasteners, Hardware & Material HandlingTools / hardware starter — verify approved material and method

Bring charged spare batteries before lift work. A dead impact or drill mid-air turns into wasted trips and shortcuts.

Field checklist

Check battery charge before heading up.
Bring a spare if the task is long.
Keep charger location known.
Pack the correct drill/impact.
Do not substitute wrong tools because the battery died.

Ask foreman

Do we have spare batteries before I take the lift up?

Do not

Do not go up for a hardware-heavy task with one weak battery.

Why it matters

Dead batteries create downtime and tempt apprentices to use the wrong tool.
