When hooking up the cen-tech 60581 charger/starter

I don't think so, It did that on one of my lawn tractor batteries but not on the other lawn tractor or car battery, I suspect something is wrong with the battery.

Edging a worktop

The best thing to use is contact cement or super 77 spray adhesive. Put either one on both surfaces, let dry, set it back on and use painters tape to hold on for 24 hrs.

How to replace battery on black & decker SZ360

I found a 1200mah 3.6v NiCd pack at BatterySpace.com for $10.99 each, the lowest shipping cost was FedEx Ground at $13.04 so I bought three of them, I'm sure I know some others that will need the other two. The quote 5 days to ship, in case they need to assemble them from individual cells. The only issue is that I probably will have to modify the tabs to match the wiring in the scissors body, I'm sure Mr Dremel will come through for me on this point. Black and Decker is most certainly *not* the best place to look, they have an exploded-view diagram of the scissors but have discontinued all parts for this model. Van

When I attempt to pump the jack up it will not

Either the pressure release valve is loose or the seals are worn out. Make sure the screw valve is tight. If that doesn't fix the problem, buy another jack. The seals really aren't user replaceable.
