Cordless Circular Saw Operator's Manual 11
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE BATTERY CHARGER
1. This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for battery charger Model
UC 24YF.
2. Before using the battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on
(1) battery charger (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.
3. To reduce risk of injury, charge JOHN DEERE rechargeable battery type EB7, EB9, EB12,
EB14, EB18, EB24 series. Other type of batteries may burst causing personal injury and
damage.
4. Do not expose battery charger to rain or snow.
5. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may
result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug when disconnecting battery
charger.
7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper
extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock.
If extension cord must be used, make sure:
a. The blades of extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as those
of plug on battery charger;
b. The extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; and
c. The wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of battery charger as
specified in Table 1.
Table 1
RECOMMENDED MINIMUM AWG SIZE FOR
EXTENSION CORDS FOR BATTERY CHARGERS
AC Input Rating Amperes* AWG Size of Cord
Equal to or but less Length of Cord, Feet (Meter)
greater than than 25 (7.5) 50 (15) 100 (30) 150 (45)
0 2 18181816
2 3 18181614
3 4 18181614
*If the input rating of a battery charger is given in watts rather than in amperes, the correspond-
ing ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage rating by the voltage rating- for
example:
1250 watts
= 10 amperes
125 volts
9. Do not operate battery charger with damaged cord or plug- replace them immediately.
10. Do not operate battery charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged in any way; take it to a qualified service person.
11. Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a qualified service person when service or
repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
12. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from receptacle before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning. Removing the battery will not reduce this risk.
