RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION (Continued)
7. 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. That pins on plug of extension cord are the
same number, size and shape as those of plug
on charger.
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in
good electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere
rating of charger as specified below:
Cord Length (Feet) 25 ft. 50 ft. 100 ft.
Cord Size (AWG) 16 16 16
Note: AWG = American Wire Gage
8. Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or
plug. Replace immediately.
9. Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any
way; take it to an AUTHORIZED SERVICE
CENTER.
10. Do not disassemble charger; take it to an
AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER when service
or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may
result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
11. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from
outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
PRECAUTIONS REGARDING THE USE OF
CHARGER AND BATTERIES
1. Do not charge batteries when temperature is below
50° F (10° C) or above 95° F (35° C).
2. The charger is designed to operate on standard
household electrical power. Do not attempt to use
it on any other voltage.
3. Consecutive charging may cause overheating. If
you need to recharge batteries consecutively, wait
for about 15 minutes to allow charger to cool.
4. Do not charge by means of an engine generator or
DC power source.
5. Do not store the tool in locations where the
temperature may reach or exceed 104° F (40° C),
such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer.
6. Do not incinerate the tool, even if it is severely
damaged or completely worn out. The batteries
may explode in fire.
7. Battery leakage may occur under conditions of
extreme usage or temperature. If liquid comes in
contact with skin, wash quickly with soap and
water, then with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid
gets in your eyes, wash for at least 10 minutes and
seek medical attention immediately.
8. Do not short-circuit the battery.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Look for this symbol to point out important safety precautions.
It means attention!!! Your safety is involved.
WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
