Electric Safety
m
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
1. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off-position before connecting with battery packs, picking
up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the appliance with
your finger on the switch or energizing appliance that have
the switch on invites accidents.
2. Remove the battery packs from the appliance before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
appliance. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the appliance accidentally.
3. 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.
4. Use appliances only with specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
5. When battery packs are not in use, keep them 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.
7. 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.
8. 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.
9. Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
10. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery packs or appliance outside of the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly
or at temperatures outside of the specified range may
damage the batteries and increase the risk of fire.
11. Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure
that the safety of the product is maintained.
12. Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the
battery packs (as applicable) except as indicated in the
instructions for use and care.
Battery & Charger
Safety Instructions
NOTE: This unit is tool only. The batteries and the charger are
not included. They must be purchased separately.
Model 24V-X2-20SB-CT-RM is compatible with the 24V
iON+ System batteries and chargers. See page 17 for more
information.
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,
durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially
formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the
best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be
exercised when handling batteries. The following points must
be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only
be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling
of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT! Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor
care of high-performance batteries are the main factors
responsible for personal and/or product damage.
m
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
m
WARNING!
Use appliances only with specifically
designated battery packs (see page 17 for all specifically
designated battery packs). Unauthorized battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
m
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of injury, charge the
24V iON+ lithium-ion battery packs only in the designated 24V
iON+ lithium-ion chargers. Other types of chargers present risk
of fire, personal injury and damage. Do not wire a battery pack
to a power supply plug or car cigarette lighter. Such misuse
will permanently disable or damage the battery pack.
• Avoid dangerous environments – Do not charge the
battery packs in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations.
Do not use the battery packs or charger in the presence of
explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or flammable
materials) because sparks may be generated when inserting
or removing the battery packs, which could lead to a fire.
• Charge in a well-ventilated area – Do not block the
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow for proper
ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open flames near a
charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
NOTE: The safe temperature range for the battery is
41°F – 105ºF (5°C – 40.5°C). Do not charge the battery
outside in freezing weather; charge it at room temperature.
