Additional Battery and Charger Safety Notes
WARNING: Li-Ion batteries, if incorrectly used, stored or charged are a fire, burn and explosion
hazard.
Use the battery charger correctly
▪ Refer to the section of this manual relating to use of the battery charger before attempting
to charge the battery.
▪ Do not attempt to use the charger with any batteries other than those supplied. Failure to
follow these instructions may cause overheating or fire.
▪ When battery pack is not in use, make sure the battery pack cannot be shorted accidentally.
Keep the battery clean at all times. Keep it away from other metal objects, like 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.
▪ Allow batteries to cool for 15 minutes after charging or heavy use. Failure to follow these
instructions may cause overheating or fire.
▪ Use only chargers recommended by the manufacturer to charge the batteries. If a charger
is not suitable for a certain kind of battery there is a risk of fire. Only use Li-Ion batteries
provided with a product or specifically designed to be compatible.
▪ Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
▪ The unit is designed for operation in altitudes of up to 2000 m above sea level.
▪ Keep the battery out of reach of children.

▪ Do not open, disassemble, crush, heat above 60° C or incinerate. Do not dispose of in fire
or similar.
▪ 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.
▪ If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.
▪ 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.
