battery so that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc. Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transportingindividual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulatedfrom materials that couldcontactthemandcausea shortcircuit.

BATTERY CAP INFORMATION

Battery Cap

Battery storage and carrying caps are provided for use whenever the battery is out of the tool or charger.

Remove cap before placing battery in charger or tool.

Extension Cord

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord be sure it is heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Insulation

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two

separate layers of electrical insulation or one double thickness

of insulation between you and the toolʼs electrical system.

Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be

grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with a two prong

plug which permits you to use extension cords without concern

for maintaining a ground connection. NOTE: Double insulation does

not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this

tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury

resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.

REPLACEMENT PARTS:When servicing all tools, USE IDENTICAL

REPLACEMENT PARTS. Repair or replace damaged cords.
