20) Do not abuse cord. Never carry char-
ger by cord or yank it to disconnect
from outlet. Keep cord away from
heat, oil and sharp edges.
21) Charge the battery pack in a well ven-
tilated place, do not cover the charger
and battery pack with a cloth, etc.,
while charging.
22) Use of an attachment not recom-
mended may result in a risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons.
23) Do not short the battery pack. A bat-
tery short can cause a large current
flow, over heating and burns.
24) NOTE: If the supply cord of this ap-
pliance is damaged, it must only be
replaced by a repair shop appointed
by the manufacturer, because special
purpose tools are required.
25) TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELEC-
TRIC SHOCK, THIS APPLIANCE HAS
A POLARIZED PLUG (ONE BLADE IS
WIDER THAN THE OTHER).
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not change the plug in any way.

NOTE:
When you charge the battery pack for
the first time, or after prolonged stor-
age, charge it for about 24 hours to
bring the batteries up to full capacity.

3. During charging, the charging lamp
will be lit.
When charging is completed, an inter-
nal electronic switch will automatically
be triggered to prevent overcharging.
Charging will not start if the battery
pack is warm (for example, immedi-
ately after heavy-duty operation).
The orange standby lamp will be
lit until the battery cools down.
Charging will then begin automati-
cally.
4. When charging is completed, the
charg ing lamp will start flashing
quickly in green color.
5. When in any of the conditions that bat-
tery pack is too cool, or the battery
pack has not been used for a long
time, the charging lamp is lit.
In this case, charging takes longer to
fully charge the battery pack, than the
standard charging time.
If a fully charged battery pack is
inserted into the charger again, the
charging lamp light up. After several
minutes, the charging lamp may flash
quickly to indicate the charging is
completed.
6. If the charging lamp does not light
imme diately after the charger is
plugged in, or if after the standard
charging time the lamp does not go
off, consult an autho rized dealer.
NOTE:
When charging a cool battery pack
(below 5°C (41°F) in a warm place,
leave the battery pack at the place
and wait for more than one hour to

the ambient temperature. Other-
