SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BATTERY TOOL USE
AND CARE
1. Recharge 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.
2. Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
3. When the battery pack is not in use,
keep it away from other metal objects,
such as 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.
4. Under abusive conditions, liquid may
be ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, also seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery
may cause irritation or burns.
SERVICE
1. Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
