BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
■ 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

metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal

terminals together may cause burns
or a fire.
