READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. This manual contains important safety and
operating instructions for battery charger Model
UC18YFSL.
2. Before using battery charger, read all instructions
and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger,
(2) battery, and (3) product using battery.
3. To reduce risk of injury, charge metabo HPT
rechargeable battery models of the multi volt
series and the BSL18 series. Other models of
batteries may burst causing personal injury and
damage.
4. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold
by the battery charger manufacturer may result in
a risk of
fi
re, electric shock, or injury to persons.
5. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and
cord, pull by plug when disconnecting battery
charger.
6. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be
stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected
to damage or stress.
7. An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension
cord could result in a risk of
fi
re and electric shock.
If extension cord must be used make sure:
a. That blades of extension cord are the same
number, size, and shape as those of plug on
battery charger:
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in
good electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere
rating of battery charger as speci
fi
ed in
Table 1.

* If the input rating of a battery charger is given in
watts rather than in amperes, the corresponding
ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the
wattage rating by the voltage rating–for example:
1,250 watts
= 10 amperes
125 volts
8. Do not operate battery charger with damaged
cord or plug-replace them immediately.
9. Do not operate battery charger if it has received a
sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged
in any way; take it to a quali
fi
ed serviceman.
10. Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a
quali
fi
ed serviceman when service or repair is
required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk
of electric shock or
fi
re.
11.
To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug
charger from receptacle before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning. Removing the battery
will not reduce this risk.
