General Power Tool Safety Warnings

5)  Battery tool use and care 
a)  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. 

b)  Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. 

Use of any other 

battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire. 

c)   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.

d)  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. 

e)  Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. 

Damaged or 

modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion 

or risk of injury. 

f)   Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. 

Exposure 

to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion. 

g)  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. 

6)  Service
a)  Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical 

replacement parts. 

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. 

b)  Never service damaged battery packs. 

Service of battery packs should only be 

performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.

decrease the risk of inadvertent starting and resultant personal injury from the 

blades.
