damaged in any other way, do not insert it in
the charging base. There is a danger of electric
shock or electrocution.
WARNING: Do not allow any liquid to come
into contact with the charger. There is a danger
of electric shock.
• The charger is not intended for any use other
than charging the exact type of rechargeable
battery pack as supplied with the charger. Any
other use may result in the risk of fire, electric
shock or electrocution.
• The charger and battery pack supplied with it
are specifically designed to work together. Do
not attempt to charge the battery pack with any
other charger than the one supplied.
• Do not place any object on top of the charger
as it could cause overheating. Do not place the
charger near any heat source.
• Pull on the charger to disconnect it from the
power source. Do not pull on the lead.
• Make sure that the charger lead is positioned
where it will not be stepped on, tripped over or
otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it is ab-
solutely necessary. The use of an improper ex-
tension cord could cause the risk of fire, electric
shock or electrocution.
• Do not use the charger if it has been subjected
to a heavy knock, dropped or otherwise dam-
aged in any way. Take the charger to an autho-
rized service center for a check or repair.
• Do not disassemble the charger. Take it to an
authorized service center when service or repair
is required. Incorrect re-assembly may result in
the risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• To reduce the risk of an electric shock, unplug
the charger from the power supply before at-
tempting to clean it. Removing the battery pack
alone does not reduce the risk.
• The charger is designed for use from a stan-
dard household electrical supply. Do not at-
tempt to connect the charger to a supply with
a different voltage.
• Do not abuse cord or charger. Never use the
cord to carry the charger. Do not pull the char-
ger cord rather than the plug when disconnect-
ing from receptacle. Damage to the cord or
charger could occur and create an electric shock
hazard. Replace damaged cords immediately.
• Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based
products, etc. come in contact with plastic parts.
They contain chemicals that can damage, weak-
en or destroy plastic.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR BATTERY PACK
• To ensure the longest battery life and best
E N G L I S H •
battery performance, always charge the battery
when the temperature is between 0~40°C. Do
not charge the battery pack when the tempera-
ture is below 0°C, or above 50°C. This is impor-
tant. Failure to observe this safety rule could cause
serious damage to the battery pack.
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it
is seriously damaged or can no longer hold a
charge. The battery pack can explode in a fire.
• A small leakage of liquid from the battery
pack may occur under extreme usage or temper-
ature. This does not necessarily indicate a failure
of the battery pack. However, if the outer seal
is broken and this leakage comes into contact
with your skin:
· Wash the affected area quickly with soap and
water.
· Neutralise the liquid with a mild acid such as
lemon juice or vinegar.
If the leakage gets in your eyes:
· Flush your eyes with clean water for a mini-
mum of 10 minutes and seek immediate medical
attention. Inform the medical staff that the liq-
uid is a 25-35% solution of potassium hydroxide.
• Never attempt to open the battery pack for
any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery
pack breaks open or cracks, immediately discon-
tinue its use and do not recharge it.
• Do not store or carry a spare battery pack in
a pocket or toolbox or any other place where
it may come into contact with metal objects.
The battery pack may be short circuited causing
damage to the battery pack, burns or a fire. If
storing or disposing the battery pack, cover the
terminals with a heavy insulation tape to en-
sure short circuit cannot occur. Batteries, when
stored for a long period of time, will discharge.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack
in locations where the temperature may reach
or exceed 50°C such as alongside sheds or metal
structures in the summer.
• Allow the battery pack to cool down after
charging. Do not place it in a hot environment
such as a metal shed or open trailer left in the
sun.
• Only charge the battery with the charger sup-
plied.
