Important Safety Instructions For Use Of The Battery And Battery Charger - Metabo HPT WH 18DGL Manual De Instrucciones

4. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by
the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk
of fi re, electric shock, or injury to persons.
5. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord,
pull by plug when disconnecting battery charger.
6. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped
on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or
stress.

* If the input rating of a battery charger is given in watts
rather than in amperes, the corresponding ampere
rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage
rating by the voltage rating―for example:
1,250 watts
125 volts
8. Do not operate battery charger with damaged cord or
plug-replace them immediately.
9. Do not operate battery charger if it has received a
sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in
any way; take it to a qualifi ed serviceman.
10. Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a
qualifi ed serviceman when service or repair is
required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of
electric shock or fi re.
11. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from
receptacle before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning. Removing the battery will not reduce this
risk.

7. An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension
cord could result in a risk of fi re and electric shock.
If extension cord must be used make sure:
a. That blades of extension cord are the same
number, size, and shape as those of plug on
battery charger:
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere
rating of battery charger as specifi ed in Table 1.

BURST AND CAUSE INJURY!
Follow these instructions to avoid the risk of injury:
WARNING: Improper use of the battery
1. NEVER disassemble the battery.
2. NEVER incinerate the battery, even if it is damaged or
is completely worn out. The battery can explode in a
fi re.
3. NEVER short-circuit the battery.
4. NEVER insert any objects into the battery charger's
air vents. Electric shock or damage to the battery
charger may result.
5. NEVER charge outdoors. Keep the battery away
from direct sunlight and use only where there is low
humidity and good ventilation.
6. NEVER charge when the temperature is below 32°F
(0°C) or above 104°F (40°C).
Charging the battery at temperatures outside the
range of 32°F – 104°F (0°C – 40°C) may prevent
proper charging and reduce battery life.
7. NEVER connect two battery chargers together.
8. NEVER insert foreign objects into the hole for the
battery or the battery charger.
