First Aid - DeWalt DXAEWPC4 Instruction Manual

• Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and
watches when working with a lead acid battery. A lead acid battery
can produce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring, or
similar metal object, to skin causing a severe burn.
• Be extra cautious to avoid dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It
might spark or short-circuit the battery or another electrical part, and
that may cause an explosion.
• Never allow battery acid to come in contact with this apparatus.
• Do not operate this apparatus in a closed area or restrict ventilation
in any way.
• Always turn the battery charger off by unplugging it when not in use.
• DO NOT OPEN THE BATTERY CHARGER — there are no user-
serviceable parts inside. Opening the battery charger will void
manufacturer's warranty.
• Operate battery charger only as described in this Instruction Manual.
• Check battery charger and components periodically for wear and
tear. Return to manufacturer for replacement of worn or defective
parts immediately.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, follow these instructions
and those published by the battery manufacturer and manufacturer of
any equipment you intend to use with this unit. Review cautionary
markings on this product and on the engine.
