Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped
on, tripped over, come in contact with sharp edges or
moving parts or otherwise be subjected to damage or
stress. This will reduce the risk of accidental falls, which
could cause injury and damage to the cord, which could
result in electric shock.
Keep cord and charger away from heat to prevent
damage to housing or internal parts.
Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products, etc.
come in contact with plastic parts. They contain
chemicals that can damage, weaken or destroy plastic.
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result
in a risk of fire and electric shock. If extension cord
must be used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the same
number, size and shape as those of the plug on
charger
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good
condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating
of charger as specified below:
Cord length (Feet) - 25’ 50’ 100’
Cord Size (AWG) - 16 16 16
NOTE: AWG= American Wire Gauge
Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this product. If
you loan someone this tiller, loan them these
instructions also.
WARNING:
Keep all connections dry and off the
ground. Do not touch plug with wet hands.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the charger. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by
the battery charger manufacturer may result in a
risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
Do not service tiller with battery or switch key
installed.
Do not use the charger when the ambient
temperature is above 113°F (45°C) or below
0°F (-18°C).
Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or
plug which could cause shorting and electric
shock. If damaged, replace the charger with an
identical charger from an authorized service
provider.
Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any
way. Take it to a qualified individual for electrical
check to determine if the charger is in good
working order.
Unplug charger from outlet before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of
electric shock.
Disconnect charger from the power supply when
not in use to prevent damage to the charger during
a power surge.
Risk of electric shock, Do not touch uninsulated
portion of output connector or uninsulated battery
terminal.
Do not expose charger to wet or damp conditions,
Water entering charger will increase the risk of
electric shock.
