SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate battery products in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust.
Battery products create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.

listed in tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correla-
tion supplement 987000-432
.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug.
A polarized plug has two blades
with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug
has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide
blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If
the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an
electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

Protect the extension cord from being walked on or
pinched particularly at plugs, convenience recep-
tacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

Unplug this product during lightning storms or when
when not in use.

Check extension cords before each use. If damaged
replace immediately.
Never use a product with a dam-
aged cord since touching the damaged area could cause

PERSONAL SAFETY

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long
hair can be caught in moving parts or drawn into air vents.

Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off-position before connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the product.
Carrying
battery packs with your finger on the switch or energizing
products that have the switch on invites accidents.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
Proper footing and balance enable better
control of the product in unexpected situations.

Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the
product in unexpected situations.

Constantly stay aware of cord location.
BATTERY PRODUCT USE AND CARE

Do not use the product if switch does not turn it on
or off.
A battery tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect battery pack or extension cord from prod-
uct or place the switch in the locked or off position be-
fore making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing the product.
Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the product accidentally.

Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.

Use battery products only with specifically designated
battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.

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 burns or a fire.

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.

Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion, or risk
of injury.

Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature
above 265° F may cause explosion.

Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of fire.
