BATTERY tool use and care
1.
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.

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.
4.
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 med-
ical help.
Liquid ejected from the BATTERY may
cause irritation or burns.

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.
