SAFETY
WARNING — To reduce the risk of injury, user must
read and understand operator’s manual.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always
be exercised when handling batteries. The following points
must be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use
can only be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used.
Incorrect handling of the battery pack can cause
cell damage.
• Avoid dangerous environments: Do not charge the
battery pack in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations.
Do not use the battery pack or charger in the presence
of explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or
ammable materials) because sparks may be generated
when inserting or removing the battery pack, which
could lead to a re.
• Charge in a well-ventilated area: Do not block the
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow for proper
ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open ames near a
charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
Note: The safe temperature range for the battery charging
is -4°F to 113°F (-20 °C to 45 °C). Do not charge the
battery outside in freezing weather; charge it at room
temperature.
• Maintain charger cord: When unplugging the charger,
pull the plug, not the cord, from the receptacle to reduce
the risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord. Never
carry the charger by its cord or yank it by the cord to
disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep the cord away
from heat, oil and sharp edges. Make sure the cord
will not be stepped on, tripped over or subjected to
damage or stress when the charger is in use. Do not
use the charger with a damaged cord or plug. Replace a
damaged charger immediately.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
necessary: Using the wrong, damaged or improperly
wired extension cord poses a risk of re and electric
shock. If an extension cord must be used, plug the
charger into a properly wired 16 gauge or larger
extension cord with the female plug matching the male
plug on the charger. Make sure that the extension cord
is in good electrical condition.
• Charger is rated for 120 volt AC only: The charger
must be plugged into an appropriate receptacle.
• Use only recommended attachments: Use of an
attachment not recommended or sold by Senix may
result in risk of re, electric shock or personal injury.
• Unplug charger when not in use: Make sure to
remove battery packs from unplugged chargers.
WARNING — To reduce the risk of electric shock,
always unplug the charger before
performing any cleaning or maintenance.
Do not allow water to ow into the
charger. Use a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce shock
hazards.
• Do not burn or incinerate battery packs: Battery
packs may explode, causing personal injury or damage.
Toxic fumes and materials are created when battery
packs are burned.
• Do not crush, drop or damage battery packs: Do not
use the battery pack or charger if they have sustained
a sharp blow, been dropped, run over or have been
damaged in any way (i.e. pierced with a nail, hit with a
hammer, stepped on, etc.).
• Do not disassemble: Incorrect reassembly may pose
a serious risk of electric shock, re or exposure to
toxic battery chemicals. If the battery or charger are
damaged, call Senix customer service at
1-800-261-3981 for assistance.
• Battery chemicals cause serious burns: Never let a
damaged battery pack contact the skin, eyes or mouth.
If a damaged battery pack leaks battery chemicals,
use rubber or neoprene gloves to safely dispose of it.
If skin is exposed to battery uids, wash the aected
area with soap and water and rinse with vinegar. If eyes
are exposed to battery chemicals, immediately ush
with water for 20 minutes and seek medical attention.
Remove and dispose of contaminated clothing.

SAFETY
• Do not short circuit: A battery pack will short circuit if
a metal object makes a connection between the positive
and negative contacts on the battery pack. Do not place
a battery pack near anything that may cause a short
circuit, such as paper clips, coins, keys, screws, nails
and other metallic objects. A short-circuited battery pack
poses a risk of re and severe personal injury.
• Store your battery pack and charger in a cool, dry
place: Do not store the battery pack or charger where
temperatures may exceed 104 °F (40 °C), such as
in direct sunlight or inside a vehicle or metal building
during the summer.
ABOUT THE BATTERY
• The battery pack supplied is only partially charged. The
battery pack has to be charged completely before you
use it for the rst time.
• For optimum battery performance, avoid low discharge
cycles by charging the battery pack frequently.
• Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural aging
process. The battery pack must be replaced at the latest
when its capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity when
new. Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no
longer capable of meeting the high power requirements
needed for the proper operation of your tool, and
therefore pose a safety risk.
• Do not throw battery packs into an open re as this
poses a risk of explosion. Do not ignite the battery pack
or expose it to re.
• Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. Exhaustive
discharge will damage the battery cells. The most
common cause of exhaustive discharge is lengthy
storage or non-use of partially discharged batteries.
Stop working as soon as the performance of the
battery falls noticeably or the electronic protection
system triggers. Place the battery pack in storage
only after it has been fully charged.
• Protect batteries and the tool from overloads.
Overloads will quickly result in overheating and
cell damage inside the battery housing even if this
overheating is not apparent externally.
• Avoid damage and shocks. Immediately replace
batteries that have been dropped from a height of more
than one meter or those that have been exposed to
violent shocks, even if the housing of the battery pack
appears to be undamaged. The battery cells inside the
battery may have suered serious damage. In such
instances, please read the waste disposal information
for proper battery disposal.
• If the battery pack suers overloading and overheating,
the integrated protective cuto will switch o the
equipment for safety reasons.
• Use only original battery packs. The use of other
batteries poses a re risk and may result in injuries or
an explosion.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery, avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
DISPOSAL
WARNING — Waste electrical products should not
be disposed of with household waste.
Please recycle where facilities exist.
Check with your local authority or retailer
for recycling advice.
Lithium-ion batteries must be disposed of at a hazardous
waste collection point or battery recycling location, NOT
with household waste.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
CHARGER
Protect the battery charger and its cord from damage.
Keep the charger and its cord away from heat, oil and
sharp edges. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with grounded appliances. Unmodied plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
Keep the battery charger, battery pack(s) and the cordless
tool out of the reach of children. Do not use the supplied
battery charger to charge other cordless tools. During
periods of heavy use, the battery pack will become warm.
Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature before
inserting it into the charger to recharge.
Do not overcharge batteries. Do not exceed the maximum
charging times. These charging times only apply to
discharged batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged or
partially charged battery pack will result in overcharging
and cell damage. Do not leave battery in the charger for
days on end. Never use or charge a battery if you suspect
that it has been more than 12 months since the last time
they were charged. There is a high probability that the
battery pack has already suered dangerous damage
(exhaustive discharge).
Do not use battery that have been exposed to heat during
the charging process, as the battery cells may have
suered dangerous damage. Do not use battery that have
suered curvature or deformation during the charging
process or those that exhibit other atypical symptoms
(gassing, hissing, cracking, etc.)
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS (For charger)
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN,
grounding provides the path of least resistance for an
electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This
tool is equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug
MUST be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes
and ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not t
the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
licensed electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in electric shock. The conductor with
the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the
equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of
the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the
equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
CHECK with a licensed electrician or service personnel
if you do not completely understand the grounding
instructions or whether the tool is properly grounded.
CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the outlet in
question is properly grounded. If you are
not sure, have a licensed electrician check
the outlet.
WARNING — This tool is for indoor use only. Do not
expose to rain or use in damp locations.
