battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
c ) When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away

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.
d ) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact.
e ) If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water.
If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help.

repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
