Save these safety instructions. This user manual
contains important safety instructions for the battery
charger.
Read all safety instructions and warnings concerning
the battery charger and the battery pack before you
start using the battery charger.
WARNING: only charge battery of the correct type.
Other types of batteries may explode and cause
personal injuries and other damages.
Do not subject the charger to rain or snow, and avoid
using it in damp places.
The use of non-recommended spare parts may con-
stitute a risk of fire, electric shock, and/or personal
injury.
Unplug the charger by pulling at the plug instead of at
the wire itself. This will minimize the risk of damaging
the plug as well as the wire.
Do not use the charger if the wire or plug are dam-
aged – replace them as soon as possible.

heavy blow, has fallen down on the floor, or in any
other way has been damaged – deliver it to a qualified
repair shop.
Do not take the charger apart. If it needs checking or
repair, deliver it to a qualified repair shop. If it is incor-
rectly reassembled it may result in a risk of electric
shock and/or fire.
To minimize the risk of electric shock, the charger
must be unplugged before it is subject to maintenance
or cleaning.
Check that the wire lies in such a way as to prevent
anyone to step on it, trip over it, or in other ways
subject it to damage or pressure.
The charger and the battery are specially made to
work together. Avoid charging other cordless tools or
batteries with this charger. Avoid charging the battery
with other chargers.
Avoid separating the battery charger and the battery
itself.
Do not put the tool and the battery pack in a place
where the temperature may exceed 50° C (e.g. a metal
tool shed or a car in the summer). This may cause
deterioration of the battery’s capacity and damage to
the battery.
Do not charge the battery if the temperature is below
0°C or over 40°C.
Do not burn the battery as it may explode.
The charger is made for use with a regular electricity
network. Only charge the voltage indicated on the

Handle the wire with care. The charger must never be
carried by the wire or unplugged with a vigorous pull.
Keep the wire at a good distance from heat, oil, and
sharp edges.
