liquids, water, and chemicals can enter the product’s
electronic components and/or battery compartment and
damage electronic components and/or the battery pack,
which can result in a short circuit, increased risk of fire,
and serious personal injury. Remove any buildup of dirt
and debris by wiping the product clean with a dry cloth
occasionally.
Do not use battery-operated appliance in rain.
Remove or disconnect battery before servicing,
cleaning or removing material from the tool.

burns or a fire.
Do not use a battery pack or appliance 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 appliance 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 appliance outside of the
temperature range specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside of the
specified range may damage the battery and increase
the risk of fire.
