protection when spraying. Do not attempt to modify this sprayer. Replace
parts only with manufacturer’s original
parts.
Never spray flammable, caustic, acidic, chlorine, bleach or other corrosive solutions or heat,

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION FOR BATTERY PACKS READ ALL
INSTRUCTIONS
•
DO NOT incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out.
The
battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created when battery packs are burned.
•
DO NOT charge or use battery in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust.
Inserting or removing the battery from the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.
•
If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with mild soap and water.
If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If
medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte for Lithium-Ion batteries is composed of a mixture of
liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
•
Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation.
Provide fresh air. If symptoms persist,
seek medical attention.
WARNING: Burn hazard.
Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
•
Charge the battery packs only in
Chapin
chargers.
•
DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
This may cause premature cell failure.
•
DO NOT store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or
exceed 105ºF (40ºC) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
WARNING:
Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If battery pack case is cracked or damaged,
do not insert into charger. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that
has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over or damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with a
hammer, stepped on). Damaged battery packs should be returned to service center for recycling.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so that metal objects can contact exposed battery
terminals.
For example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc.,
with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.
Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with
conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like.
The US Department of transportation
Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e.,
packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when
transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from
materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
NOTE: Lithium-Ion batteries should not be put in
checked baggage.
