IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! 

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS. 

Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may 
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal 
injury.

  Before  using  charger,

  read  all  instructions  and 

cautionary markings in this manual, on charger, battery, 
and  product  using  battery  to  prevent  misuse  of  the 
products and possible injury or damage.

CAUTION: 

To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to 

the  charger  and  battery,  charge  only  lithium-ion 

rechargeable batteries as specifically designated 
in this manual. Other types of batteries may burst, 
causing personal injury or damage.

  Do  not  use  charger  outdoors  or  expose  to  wet  or 

damp conditions.

 Water entering charger will increase 

the risk of electric shock.

  Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by 

the charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, 
electric  shock,  or  injury  to  persons.

  Following  this 

rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious 
personal injury. 

  Do not abuse cord or charger. 

Never use the cord to 

carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord rather 
than  the  plug  when  disconnecting  from  receptacle. 
Damage to the cord or charger could occur and create 
an  electric  shock  hazard.  Replace  damaged  cords 
immediately.

  Make  sure  cord  is  located  so  that  it  will  not  be 

stepped on, tripped over, come in contact with sharp 
edges  or  moving  parts,  or  otherwise  subjected  to 

damage or stress.

 This will reduce the risk of accidental 

falls, which could cause injury, and damage to the cord, 
which could result in electric shock.

  Keep cord and charger from heat to prevent damage 

to housing or internal parts.

  Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products, 

etc., come in contact with plastic parts. 

They contain 

chemicals  that  can  damage,  weaken,  or  destroy 
plastic.   

  Do  not  operate  charger  with  a  damaged  cord  or 

plug, 

which could cause shorting and electric shock. If 

damaged, have the charger replaced by an authorized 
serviceman.

  Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, 

been  dropped,  or  otherwise  damaged  in  any  way. 

Take it to an authorized serviceman for electrical check 
to determine if the charger is in good working order. 

  Do not disassemble charger. 

Take it to an authorized 

serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect 
reassembly  may  result  in  a  risk  of  electric  shock  or 
fire.

  Unplug charger from outlet before attempting any 

maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of electric 
shock.

  Disconnect  charger  from  the  power  supply  when 

not in use. 

This will reduce the risk of electric shock or 

damage to the charger if metal items should fall into the 
opening. It also will help prevent damage to the charger 
during a power surge.

  Risk of electric shock.

 Do not touch uninsulated portion 

of output connector or uninsulated battery terminal.

  Save these instructions.

 Refer to them frequently and 

use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you 
loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also 
to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.
