6. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or
otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
7. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of
improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
a. Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round
jacketed extension cords should be used, and we recommend that they be listed
by Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.). If the extension is to be used outside, the cord
must be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord marked for outdoor use can also be
used for indoor work. The letters "W" or "WA" on the cord jacket indicate that the
cord is suitable for outdoor use.
b. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge)
for safety, and to prevent loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge
number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable; that is, 16 gauge has
more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the
total length, be sure each extension contains at least the minimum wire size.
8. Use only the supplied charger when charging your tool. The use of any other
charger could damage the tool or create a hazardous condition.
9. Use only one charger when charging.
10. Do not attempt to open the charger. There are no customer serviceable parts
inside. Return to any authorized Black & Decker service center.
11. DO NOT incinerate the tool or batteries even if they are severely damaged or
completely worn out. The batteries can explode in a fire.
12. Do not incinerate the battery even if it is severely damaged or is completely
worn out. The batteries can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created
when lithium ion batteries are burned.
13. Do not charge or use battery in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the drill from the charger
may ignite the dust or fumes.
14. If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with mild
soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for
three minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery
electrolyte is composed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or
flame.
Charging Procedure
THE BATTERIES IN YOUR TOOLARE NOT FULLY CHARGED AT THE FACTORY.
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THEM,
THOROUGHLY READ ALL OF THE SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS.
To charge your tool, follow the steps below.
1. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz
electrical outlet.
2. Place the tool into the cradle as shown in figure A
making sure to match the charging contacts on the back
of the tool with the contacts in the charger. The red
(charging) light will illuminate indicating that the charging
process has started.
3. Let the tool charge initially for 9 hours. After the initial
charge, under normal usage, your tool should be fully charged in 3 to 9 hours.
Important Charging Notes
1. After normal usage, your tool should be fully charged in 3 to 9 hours. Your tool was
sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before attempting to use it, it must
be charged for at least 9 hours.
2. DO NOT charge the batteries in an air temperature below 40°F (4,5 °C) or above
105°F (+40,5 °C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the
batteries. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if batteries are
charged when air temperature is about 75°F.
