The fuel gage is only an indication of
the charge left on the battery pack. It does
not indicate tool functionality and is subject
to variation based on product components,
temperature and end-user application.
Important Safety Instructions for
All Battery Chargers
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings
and all instructions for the battery pack,
charger and power tool. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
•
DO NOT attempt to charge the battery
pack with any charges other than the
ones in this manual.
The charger and
battery pack are specifically designed to
work together.
•
These chargers are not intended for any
uses other than charging RHYNO
rechargeable battery packs.
Any other
uses may result in risk of fire, shock, or
electrocution.
•
Do not expose the charger to rain or
snow.
•
Pull by the plug rather than the cord
when disconnecting the charger.
This
will reduce the risk of damage to the
electric plug and cord.
•
Make sure that the cord is located so that
it will not be stepped on, tripped over or
otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
•
Do not use an extension cord unless it is
absolutely necessary.
Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk
of electric shock.
•
An extension cord must have adequate
wire size or AWG for safety.
The smaller
the gage number of the wire, the greater
the capacity of the cable, that is, 16 gage
has more capacity than 18 gage. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. When using more than one
extension to make up the total length, be
sure each individual extension contains at
least the minimum wire size. The
following table shows the correct size to
use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The lower the
gage number, the heavier the cord.
•
Do not place any object on top of the
charger or place the charger on a soft
surface that might block the ventilation
slots and result in excessive internal
heat.
Place the charger in a position away
from any heat source. The charger is
ventilated through slots in the sides of the
housing.
•
Do not operate the charger with a
damaged cord or plug.
•
Do not operate the charger if it has
received a sharp blow, been dropped or
