Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the
battery pack (as applicable) except as indicated in the
instructions for use and care. Use appliances only with
specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire. Use
only with Greenworks 29842 battery or other BAG series.
