• Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
• The charger and battery packs supplied with it are
specifically designed to work together. Do not attempt to
charge the battery pack with any other charger than the
one supplied.
• Do not place any object on top of the charger as it could
cause overheating. Do not place the charger near any
heat source.
• Do not pull on the lead of the charger to disconnect it
from the power source.
• Make sure that the charger cable is positioned where
it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
necessary. The use of an improper extension cord could
cause the risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not use the charger if it has been subjected to a
heavy knock, dropped or otherwise damaged in any way.
Take the charger to an authorised service centre for a
check or repair.
• Do not disassemble the charger. Take it to an authorised
service centre when service or repair is required.
Incorrect re-assembly may result in the risk of fire, electric
shock or electrocution.
• To reduce the risk of an electric shock, unplug the
charger from the power supply before attempting to clean
it. Removing the battery alone does not reduce the risk.
• Never attempt to connect two chargers together.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations
where the temperature may reach or exceed 104°F
(40°C) such as alongside sheds or metal structures in
the summer.
• The charger is designed for use from a standard
household electrical supply (230–240 volts). Do not
attempt to connect the charger to a supply with a different
supply.
• If you wish to charge a second battery pack, unplug the
charger from the mains supply and leave it for at least
15 minutes. After this time you can charge a second
battery pack.
Additional safety rules for the battery pack
• The battery pack for this tool has been shipped in a low
charge condition. You should charge the battery pack fully
before use.
• Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting
battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk
of injury and fire.
• To ensure the longest battery life and best battery
performance, always charge the battery when the air
temperature is between 18–24°C. Do not charge the
battery pack when the temperature is below 0°C,
or above 40°C. This is important. Failure to observe
this safety rule could cause serious damage to the
battery pack.
• When battery pack is not in use keep it away from other
metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small metal objects that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is seriously
damaged or can no longer hold a charge. The battery
pack can explode in a fire.
• Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason.
If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks open
or cracks, immediately discontinue its use and do not
recharge it.
