SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHARGER
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious peronal
injury.
n
Before using battery charger, read all instructions and
cautionary markings in this manual, on battery charger,
battery, and product using battery to prevent misuse of
the products and possible injury or damage.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage
to the charger and battery, charge only nickel-cadmium
rechargeable batteries as specifically designated on your
charger. Other types of batteries may burst, causing
personal injury or damage.
n Never use a battery that has been dropped or received a
sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion.
Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery
immediately.
n Do not expose charger to wet or damp conditions.
Water entering charger will increase the risk of electric
shock.
n Do not use any attachment or accessory not
recommended by the battery charger manufacturer.
Attachments and accessories that may be suitable for
one tool may become hazardous when used on another
tool.
n Do not abuse cord or charger. Never use the cord to
carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord rather
than the plug when disconnecting from receptacle.
Damage to the cord or charger could occur and create
an electric shock hazard. Replace damaged cords
immediately.
n 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 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.
n Keep cord and charger from heat to prevent damage to
housing or internal parts.
WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
n 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.
n An extension cord should not be used unless abso-
lutely 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
plug on 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 charger as specified below:
Cord Length (Feet)
Cord Size (AWG)
Note: AWG = American Wire Gage
n Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug,
which could cause shorting and electric shock. If
damaged, have the charger replaced by an authorized
serviceman.
n Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way.
Take it to an authorized serviceman for electrical check
to determine if the charger is in good working order.
n Do not disassemble charger. Take it to an authorized
serviceman when service or repair is required.
Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric
shock or fire.
n Unplug charger from outlet before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of electric
shock.
n Disconnect charger from the power supply when
not in use. This will reduce the risk of electric shock or
damage to the charger if metal items should fall into the
opening. It also will help prevent damage to the charger
during a power surge.
n Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you
loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also
to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.
