PRECAUTIONS REGARDING THE USE OF CHARGER AND BATTERIES

1.Do not charge batteries when temperature is below 50° F (10° C) or above 95° F (35° C).

2.The charger is designed to operate on standard household electrical power. Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage.

3.Consecutive charging may cause overheating. If you need to recharge batteries consecutively, wait

for about 15 minutes to allow charger to cool.

4.Do not charge by means of an engine generator or DC power source.

5.Do not store the tool in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 104° F (40° C), such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer.

6.Do not incinerate the tool, even if it is severely damaged or completely worn out. The batteries may explode in fire.

7.Battery leakage may occur under conditions of extreme usage or temperature. If liquid comes in contact with skin, wash quickly with soap and water, then with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets in your eyes, wash for at least 10 minutes and seek medical attention immediately.

8.Do not short-circuit the battery.

WARNING:

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

lead from lead-based paints,

crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
