[] Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The cell may
explode. Check with local codes for possible special
disposal instructions.
[] Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released elec-
trolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes
or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
[] Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or
heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly
injury.
[] Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of
ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of seri-
ous personal injury, never use any cordless product in
the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can
propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with
water immediately.
[] Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped
or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject
to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or dam-
aged battery immediately.
[] Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short
the battery with conducting materials such as rings,
bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may
overheat and cause burns.
[] For best results, your battery tool should be charged in
a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but
less than 100°F. To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, do not store outside or in vehicles.
[] Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact
with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water,
then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid
gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at
least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical atten-
tion. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious
personal injury.
[] SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS. Refer to them fre-
quently and use them to instruct others who may use
this power tool. If you loan someone this power tool,
loan them these instructions also.
