Failure to do so could result
in objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible
serious injury.

An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary.
Use of improper extension cord could result in
a risk of fire and electric shock. If extension cord must be
used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the same
number, size and shape as those of plug on charger.
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating
of charger as specified below:
Cord Length (Feet) 25' 50' 100'
Cord Size (AWG) 16 16 16
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge

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.

 Do not charge battery in a damp or wet location. Do
not use, store, or charge battery packs or products in
locations where the temperature is less than 50°F or
more than 100°F. Do not store outside or in vehicles.

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.
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.
WARNING:
Charge only one lithium-ion rechargeable battery at a time.
Other types of batteries may burst, causing personal injury or
damage. For compatible battery packs see tool/appliance/
battery pack/charger correlation supplement 988000-842.

Do not use charger outdoors or expose to wet or damp
conditions. Water entering charger will increase the risk of
electric shock.
WARNING:
Do not charge a battery that is wet or has been wet or
exposed to liquids.

Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the
battery 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. If
cord or charger is damaged, have the charger replaced by
an authorized serviceman.

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.
