ELECTRICAL SAFETY
◾
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with grounded power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric
shock.
◾
Do not expose to the charger to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering the charger will increase
the risk of electric shock.
◾
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling, or unplugging the charger. Keep
the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
◾
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is grounded.
◾
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
◾
The EGO charger can charge the EGO lithium-ion
battery packs listed in fig. C
◾
Charge only 56V d.c., max.12.0 Ah Li-ion type
rechargeable battery packs. Other types of batteries
may burst causing personal injury and damage.
SERVICE
◾
Have your charger serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the charger is
maintained.
◾
When servicing a charger, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance
instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.
SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or
damage to the charger and battery, charge only those
lithium-ion rechargeable batteries specifically designated
on your charger's label. Other types of batteries may
burst, causing personal injury or damage.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
◾
Before using the battery charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings in this manual
and on the battery charger, the battery and the product
to prevent misuse of the products and possible injury
or damage.
◾
Do not use the charger outdoors or expose it to
wet or damp conditions. Water entering the charger
will increase the risk of electric shock.
◾
Do not handle charger, including the charger
plug and charger terminals with wet hands.
◾
Use of an attachment not recommended or
sold by the battery-charger manufacturer may
result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons.
◾
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.
◾
Do not abuse the cord or charger. Never use the
cord to carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord
to disconnect the plug from a receptacle. Damage to
the cord or charger could occur and create an electric
shock hazard. Replace damaged cords immediately.
◾
Make sure that the cord is located so that it will
not be stepped on, tripped over, come in contact
with sharp edges or moving parts, or otherwise
be subjected to damage or stress. This will reduce
the risk of accidental falls, which could cause injury
and damage to the cord, which could then result in
electric shock.
◾
Keep the cord and charger from heat to prevent
damage to housing or internal parts.
◾
Do not allow gasoline, oils, petroleum-based
products, etc. to come in contact with plastic
parts. These materials contain chemicals that can
damage, weaken, or destroy plastic.
◾
Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord
or plug, which could cause shorting and electric
shock. If damaged, have the charger repaired or
replaced by an authorized service technician at an EGO
Service Centre.
