BATTERY TOOLS USE AND CARE
ŶRecharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
ŶUse power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury
and fire.
ŶWhen battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects, like paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
ŶUnder abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
ŶDo not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable
behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
ŶDo not expose a battery pack or tool to fire
or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire
or temperature above 130°C may cause
explosion.
ŶFollow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside
the temperature range specified in the
instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the
risk of fire.
