Before using battery charger, read all instructions and
cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2) bat-
tery pack, and (3) product using battery.
Use only the charger which accompanied your
product or direct replacement as listed in the
catalog or this manual.
Do not substitute any other
charger. Use only Dremel battery charger No. 856 with
your product.
Do not disassemble charger or operate the charger if
it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or other-
wise damaged in any way. Replace damaged cord or
plugs immediately.
Incorrect reassembly or damage
may result in electric shock or fire.
Do not recharge battery in damp or wet environment.
Do not expose charger to rain or snow. If battery case
is cracked or otherwise damaged, do not insert into
charger.
Battery short or fire may result.
Charge only Dremel No. 855 rechargeable batteries
with the above listed chargers.
Other types of batter-
ies may burst causing personal injury and damage.
Charge battery pack in temperatures above +40
degrees F (4 degrees C) and below +105 degrees F
(41 degrees C). Store tool and battery pack in loca-
tions where temperatures will not exceed 120
degrees F (49 degrees C).
This is important to prevent
serious damage to the battery cells.
Battery leakage may occur under extreme usage or
temperature conditions. Avoid contact with skin and
eyes.
The battery liquid is caustic and could cause
chemical burns to tissues. If liquid comes in contact
with skin, wash quickly with soap and water. If the
liquid contacts your eyes, flush them with water for a
minimum of 10 minutes and seek medical attention. If
contents of an opened cell causes respiratory irritation,
provide fresh air and call a doctor.
Place charger on flat non-flammable surfaces and
away from flammable materials when re-charging
battery pack.
The charger and battery pack heat
during charging. Carpeting and other heat insulating
surfaces block proper air circulation which may cause
overheating of the charger and battery pack. If smoke
or melting of the case are observed unplug the
charger immediately and do not use the battery pack
or charger.
Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by
Dremel may result in a risk of fire, electric shock or
injury to persons.
Battery/Charger

charger, keep them away from
metal objects.
For example, to protect terminals from
shorting
DO NOT
place batteries in a tool box or pocket
with nails, screws, keys, etc. Fire or injury may result.
DO NOT PUT BATTERIES INTO FIRE OR EXPOSE TO
HIGH HEAT.
They may explode.
Battery Care
Do not attempt to disassemble the
battery or remove any component
projecting from the battery terminals.
Fire or injury
may result. Prior to disposal, protect exposed terminals
with heavy insulating tape to prevent shorting.
