iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
[] Know your product. Read operator's manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specific potential hazards related to
this product. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
[] Battery products 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 product or when
changing accessories. Following this rule will reduce
the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal
injury.
[] Do not place battery products or their batteries
near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion
and possible injury.
[] 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 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, flush with water immediately.
[] Do not charge battery product in a damp or wet
location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock.

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 attention. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
[] To reduce the risk of personal injury and electric
shock, the product should not be played with or
placed where small children can reach it.
[] To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose
to water or rain.
