Electrical Safety; Mains Plug Replacement - Black & Decker KC1251 User Manual

ENGLISH
• Never attempt to connect two chargers together.
• Always disconnect the supply before making or
breaking connections to the battery.
• Be aware that this tool is always in an operating
condition, because it does not have to be plugged
into an electrical outlet. Keep the switch control
lever in the "Off" position when the tool is not in use
or when changing accessories.
• When drilling or driving screws into walls, floors
etc., check wherever "live" electrical wires may be
encountered. Do not touch any front metal parts of
the tool! Hold the tool only by the plastic housing.
• Do not store the tool in locations where the
temperature may reach or exceed 50˚C (120˚F) (such
as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
• Do not incinerate the drill/driver even if it is severely
damaged or completely worn out. The battery pack
can explode in a fire.
• A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may
occur under extreme usage, charging or
temperature conditions. This does not indicate a
failure. However, if the outer seal is broken and this
leakage gets on your skin:
• Wash quickly with soap and water.
• Neutralise with a mild acid such as lemon juice
or vinegar.
• If battery liquid gets into your eyes, flush them
with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes and
seek immediate medical attention.
(Medical note: The liquid is a 25-35% solution of
potassium hydroxide.)
• Do not attempt to open the housing of your drill or
charger.
• The supply cord of the charger should not be
replaced by the customer; if the cord is damaged it
should be replaced at an authorised Black & Decker
service repair agent.
• Ensure that the battery pack is correct for the tool.
• Ensure that the outside surface of the battery pack
or tool is clean and dry before plugging into the
charger.
• Ensure that the battery is charged using the correct
charger provided with the tool or recommended by
the manufacturer. Incorrect use may result in a risk
of electric shock, overheating or leakage of
corrosive liquid from the battery.
• Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable
batteries.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Be sure the supply is the same as the voltage given on the
rating plate. Your charger is fitted with a two-core cable
and plug.

MAINS PLUG REPLACEMENT

Should the mains plug or cordset of the product be
damaged, it must only be replaced by an authorised
Black & Decker service agent because special
purpose tools are required.
MAINS PLUG REPLACEMENT ON 1 HOUR CHARGER
(UK ONLY)
If you are using a 1 hour charger and the mains plug
needs replacing, and you are competent to do this,
proceed as instructed below.
If you are in doubt, contact a Black & Decker service
agent or a qualified electrician.
• Disconnect the plug from the power supply.
• Cut off the plug and dispose of safely. A plug with
bared copper conductors is very dangerous if
engaged in a live socket outlet.
• Only fit BS1363A approved plugs fitted with the
correctly rated fuse.
Note: Fuses do not give personal protection against
electric shock.
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked at
the connection point of most good quality plugs.
Attach the wires to their respective points in the
plug (see diagram). Brown is L (live) and blue is N
(neutral).

• Before replacing the top cover of the plug ensure
that the cable restraint is holding the outer sheath of
the cable firmly and that the two leads are correctly
fixed at the terminal screws. If the fuse cover is
missing or damaged do not use the plug.
