Battery & Charger
Safety Instructions
NOTE: This unit is the tool only. The battery and the charger are
not included. They must be purchased separately.
Model 24V‑X4‑SB21‑CT is compatible with the 24V iON+ System
batteries and chargers. See page 17 for more information.
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,
durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially
formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to assemble the best possible
battery packs.
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 packs can cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT! Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor care
of high‑performance batteries are the main factors responsible
for product damage and/or personal injury.

WARNING!
Use only approved replacement batteries;
other batteries may damage the machine and cause it to
malfunction, which can lead to serious personal injury.
m
WARNING!
Do not use a battery pack or machine that
is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
Have your battery packs serviced by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the battery packs is maintained.
m
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of injury, use only official
24V iON+ designated chargers with the 24V iON+ battery
packs. The use of other batteries or chargers poses a risk of
fire, personal injury and damage. Do not modify or attempt to
repair the machine or the battery packs except as indicated in
the instructions for use and care. Do not wire a battery pack
to a power supply or car cigarette lighter, as such misuse will
permanently disable or damage the battery packs.
m
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
always unplug the charger before performing any cleaning or
maintenance. Do not allow water to flow into the charger. Use a
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce shock hazards.
Avoid dangerous environments – Do not charge the
•
battery packs in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations.
Do not use the battery packs or charger in the presence of
explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or flammable
materials) because sparks may be generated when inserting
or removing the battery packs, which could lead to a fire.
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 flames near a
charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
NOTE: The safe temperature range for the batteries are
41°F (5°C) to 105°F (40.5°C). Do not charge the batteries
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 fire 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.
Do not expose the tool or battery packs to fire –
•
Exposure to fire or temperatures above 265°F (130°C) may
cause the battery packs to explode, causing personal injury
or damage. Toxic fumes and materials are created when
battery packs are ignited.
Check the rated input for the charger before using –
•
The charger must be plugged into an appropriate
receptacle.
Use only recommended attachments – Use of an
•
unapproved attachment may result in risk of fire, electric
shock or personal injury.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery packs – Do not
•
use the battery packs 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, fire or exposure to toxic
battery chemicals. If the batteries or charger is damaged,
contact an authorized Snow Joe

Battery chemicals cause serious burns – Never let a
•
damaged battery pack contact the skin, eyes or mouth.
If damaged, battery chemicals will react violently with air.
Use rubber or neoprene gloves to safely dispose of the
battery. If skin is exposed to battery chemicals, wash the
affected area with soap and water. If eyes are exposed
to battery chemicals, immediately flush with water for 20
minutes and seek medical attention. Remove and dispose of
contaminated clothing.
