BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
• Make sure that the switch is in the OFF position before inserting the battery
pack. Inserting the battery pack into power tools that have the switch ON
invites accidents.
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.
Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects,
like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that
can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.
Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore,
they are always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when
not using your battery tool or when changing accessories. Following this rule
will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or heat. This will reduce
the risk of explosion and possible injury.
Do not crush, drop or damage the 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 damaged
battery immediately.
A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or
damaged battery immediately.
Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the presence of a source of
ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An exploded
battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed to such debris or
chemicals, immediately flush the exposed area with water.
Do not charge a battery tool in a damp or wet location. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of electric shock.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
If liquid from the battery comes in contact with your skin, wash immediately
with soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar.
