SAFETY RULES FOR BATTERY CHARGING STAND/TRANSFORMER cont.
3. Do not abuse the cord on the battery charging stand / transformer. Never carry the
charging stand / transformer by its power cord. Never pull the power cord to remove the
transformer from the power outlet. Damage to the cord or charging stand / transformer could
occur and create an electric shock hazard. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
4. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, come in
contact with sharp edges or moving parts, heat, oil, 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.
5. Keep cord and charging stand / transformer away from heat to prevent damage to
housing or internal parts.
6. Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products, etc. come in contact with
plastic parts. They contain chemicals which can damage, weaken or destroy plastic.
7. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper
Z_ WARNING: Some dust created by using power tools contains chemicals
known to the State of California to cause cancer and 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.
• Arsenic and chromium, from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending upon how often you do
this type of work.To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling and other construction activities, Wear protective clothing and wash
exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or
lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an extension cord must be
used, make sure: a) That pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size and
shape as those on the transformer, b) That extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition, and c) That you use a proper extension cord. ONLY use cords
listed by Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Other extension cords can cause a drop in line
voltage, resulting in a loss of power and overheating of charging stand/transformer. An
AWG (American Wire Gauge) size of at least 14-gauge is recommended for an extension
cord of 25-ft. or less in length. Use 12-gauge for an extension cord of 50-ft.
Extension cords 100-ft. or longer are not recommended.
8. iNSPECT tool cords for damage. Do not operate charging stand with a damaged cord or
transformer, which could cause shorting and electric shock. Have damaged tool cords
repaired at a Sears Service Center.
9. Do not operate charging stand / transformer 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 charging stand / transformer is in good working order.
10. Do not disassemble charging stand / transformer. Take it to a Sears Parts and Repair
Center when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire.
11. Disconnect charging standltransformer from the power supply when not in use.
This will reduce the risk of electric shock or damage if metal items should fall into the opening in
the charging stand. It also will help prevent damage during a power surge.
12. Risk of electric shock. Do not touch un-insulated portion of output connector or un-insulated
battery terminal
13. Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who may
