• DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature below

32 °F (0 °C) or above 113 °F (45 °C). This is important and will
prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

• The charger and battery pack may become warm to the

touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and does
not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery
pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a
warm environment such as in a shed.

• Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.

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 fi re. 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 fl ammable liquids, gases or
dust.

Inserting or removing the battery from the charger may

ignite the dust or fumes.

• If battery contents come in to contact with the skin, im-

mediately wash area with mild soap and water.

If battery

liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 min-
utes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the
battery electrolyte for Li-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.

• Disposal of used batteries must be made at appropriate

locations and approved for receiving such material.

6. Important Safety Instructions for
Battery Packs

7. Important Safety Instructions for
Sprayers

DANGER!

• DO NOT spray fl ammable or combustible

chemical products.

This will result in serious

risk of fire and explosion.

• DO NOT spray acids or corrosive chem-

icals.

This will result in serious risk of fire,

explosion and leakage. Sprayer parts can
be permanently damaged.

• 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 113°F (45 ºC).

• Never attempt to open the battery pack for

any reason. If battery pack case is cracked or
damaged, do not connect to charger. Do not
crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has 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.

• Fire

hazard.

Do not store or carry bat-

tery 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 fi res if the
battery terminals inadvertently come in
contact with conductive materials such
as keys, coins, hand tools and the like.

Certain regulations prohibit transporting
batteries on airplanes (i.e., packed in suit-
cases 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: Batteries should not be put

in checked baggage.
