GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure
to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
sparks, burns or a fire.
Do not place battery tools or their batteries near
fire or heat.
This will reduce the risk of explosion and
possibly injury.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do
not use a battery pack or charger that has been
dropped or received a sharp blow.
A damaged
battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a
dropped or damaged battery immediately.
Batteries can explode in the presence of a source
of ignition, such as a pilot light.
To reduce the risk
of serious personal injury, never use any cordless
product in the presence of open flame. An exploded
battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed,
flush with water immediately.
Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet
location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock.
For best results, your battery tool should be
charged in a location where the temperature is
more than 10°C but less than 37.8°C.
To reduce the
risk of serious personal injury, do not store outside or
in vehicles.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in
contact with your skin, wash immediately with
soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice
or vinegar. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them
with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek
immediate medical attention.
Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
