12V Ni-Cad Battery
BEFORE USING THE BATTERY PACK AND CHARGER, READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL OF THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BELOW, AND OBSERVE ALL OF THE CAUTIONARY MARKINGS ON CHARGER, BATTERY PACK, AND THE PRODUCT
USING THE BATTERY PACK.
Important Safety Instructions for Charger:
• DANGER! Electrocution hazard. 120 volts are present at charger cord terminals. Do not probe with conductive objects. Electric shock or
electrocution may result.
• WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may result.
• CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only Legacy 12 V battery packs that fit the charger included with this tool. Do
not attempt to charge any other battery types with this charger. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
• CAUTION: Keep foreign objects out of the battery pack cavity on the charger. Metallic objects in the battery pack cavity can short the exposed
charging contacts when the charger is plugged into the power supply. Always unplug the charger when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug
charger before attempting to clean.
• CAUTION: Charger is intended for use indoors only. Do not expose charger to rain, snow, or frost. Do not place charger on any wet surfaces.
Do not place charger in any location where water may drip or splash on the charger or on the surface where the charger rests.

• Pull by plug rather than by cord to remove from power supply connection to reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord. Do not use
charger or plug charger cord into power supply if cord or plug is damaged. Have damaged cord, plug, or strain reliever replaced immediately. Do not
attempt to repair power cord or plug.
• Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to stress or damage.
• Do not use extension cord unless it is absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock, or
electrocution. If an extension cord must be used, make sure the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. The extension
cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of
the cable. For example, a 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge cord.
• The charger is designed to operate on standard 120 V AC electrical power. Do not attempt to use it on any other
voltage.
• Do not place any object on top of charger or place the charger on a soft surface that might interfere with proper air
circulation around and under the charger to avoid excessive internal heat. Place the charger in a position away from any
heat source.
• Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. Replace
the charger or take it to an authorized service center.
BEFORE USING THE BATTERY PACK AND CHARGER, READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL OF THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BELOW, AND OBSERVE ALL OF THE CAUTIONARY MARKINGS ON CHARGER, BATTERY PACK, AND THE PRODUCT
USING THE BATTERY PACK.
Important Safety Instructions for Battery Pack:
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire.
• A small leakage of liquid from the battery pack cells may occur under extreme usage or temperature conditions. If this leakage gets on
your skin:
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If battery liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.
Medical note: The battery cells are rechargeable nickel-cadmium type.
• A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for the
battery. A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.
• Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire. DO NOT
substitute or modify another battery to use with your grease gun. When ordering replacement battery packs, be
sure to indicate the specific part number for your tool.
• Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off position before making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
