Vibration Safety - Drill Master 61424 Owner's Manual & Safety Instructions

7. The battery Charger gets hot
during use. The Charger's heat
can build up to unsafe levels and
create a fire hazard if it does not
receive adequate ventilation, due to an
electrical fault, or if it is used in a
hot environment.
Do not place the Charger on a flammable
surface. Do not obstruct any vents on the
Charger. Especially avoid placing the
charger on carpets and rugs; they are not
only flammable, but they also obstruct
vents under the charger.
Place the Charger on a stable, solid,
nonflammable surface (such as a stable
metal workbench or concrete floor) at least
1 foot away from all flammable objects, such
as drapes or walls. Keep a fire extinguisher
and a smoke detector in the area. Frequently
monitor the Charger and
Battery Pack while charging.
8. This product is not a toy.
Keep it out of reach of children.
