•
Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained.
• If the battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into the charger. Replace the
battery pack.
•
Battery powered tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are
always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery
powered tool or when changing accessories. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
•
Do not place the battery in high-temperature locations, such as near a fire, heater, etc.
• Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has
been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to an explosion.
• Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce
the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open
flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water
immediately.
• Do not charge the battery in a damp or wet location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock.
• Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes
in contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water. If liquid gets into your eyes,
flush them with clean water for at least 15 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

dispose of in fire.
