do not insert into charger. Do not crush, drop or damage 
battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that 
has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over or 
damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with 
a hammer, stepped on). Electric shock or electrocution 
may result. Damaged battery packs should be returned to 
service centre for recycling.

 

WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry the 
battery pack so that metal objects can contact 
exposed battery terminals. 

For example, do not place 

the battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit 
boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.

 

CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on 
a stable surface where it will not cause a tripping 
or falling hazard. 

Some tools with large battery packs 

will stand upright on the battery pack but may be easily 
knocked over.

Transportation

 

WARNING: Fire hazard. 

Transporting batteries can 

possibly cause fire if the battery terminals inadvertently 
come in contact with conductive materials. When 
transporting batteries, make sure that the battery 
terminals are protected and well insulated from materials 
that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

 battery pack will be 

excepted from being classified as a fully regulated Class 9 
Hazardous Material. In general, only shipments containing a 
lithium-ion battery with an energy rating greater than 100 Watt 
Hours (Wh) will require being shipped as fully regulated Class 9. 
All lithium-ion batteries have the Watt Hour rating marked on 
the pack. Furthermore, due to regulation complexities, 

D

WALT

 

does not recommend air shipping lithium-ion battery packs 
alone regardless of Watt Hour rating. Shipments of tools with 
batteries (combo kits) can be air shipped as excepted if the Watt 
Hour rating of the battery pack is no greater than 100 Whr.
Regardless of whether a shipment is considered excepted 
or fully regulated, it is the shipper's responsibility to consult 
the latest regulations for packaging, labeling/marking and 
documentation requirements.
The information provided in this section of the manual is

The

Use

 and 

Transport

.

Use Mode:

WALT

 18V product, it will operate as an 18V battery. When 

the FLEXVOLT

TM

 battery is in a 54V or a 108V (two 54V batteries) 

product, it will operate as a 54V battery.

Transport Mode: 

When the cap is attached to the FLEXVOLT

TM

 

battery, the battery is in transport mode. Keep the cap for 
shipping.
When in Transport mode, strings 
of cells are electrically 
disconnected within the pack 
resulting in 3 batteries with a 
lower Watt hour (Wh) rating as compared to 1 battery with a 
higher Watt hour rating. This increased quantity of 3 batteries 
with the lower Watt hour rating can exempt the pack from 
certain shipping regulations that are imposed upon the higher 
Watt hour batteries. 
For example, the 
Transport Wh rating 
might indicate 3 x 36 Wh, 
meaning 3 batteries of 
36 Wh each. The Use Wh 
rating might indicate 108 Wh (1 battery implied).

Storage Recommendations

1.  The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away 

from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold. For optimum 
battery performance and life, store battery packs at room 
temperature when not in use.

2.  For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged 

battery pack in a cool, dry place out of the charger for 
optimal results.

nOTE:

 Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted 

of charge. The battery pack will need to be recharged before 
use.

Labels on Charger and Battery Pack

In addition to the pictographs used in this manual, the labels 
on the charger and the battery pack may show the following 
pictographs:

Read instruction manual before use.

Do not probe with conductive objects.

Do not charge damaged battery packs.
