SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

BATTERY SAFETY

nBattery operated units do not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. Be aware of pos- sible hazards even when unit is not operating.

nRemove the battery pack from the chain saw before cleaning, servicing, storing, removing material from the unit, changing accessories such as the bar and chain, or when not in use.

nA battery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery pack. A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. Use battery pack only with charger listed.

nFor use with 18V nickel-cadmium and 18 V lithium-ion battery packs, see tool/appliance/ battery pack/charger correlation supplement 987000-432.

nTo reduce the risk of explosion and possible injury, Do not place battery units or their batteries near fire or heat.

nDo not open or mutilate the battery pack. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery immediately.

nBatteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any

cordless product in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery pack can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water imme- diately.

nDo not charge unit in a damp or wet location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.

nFor best results, your battery unit should be charged in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than 100°F. Do not store outside or in vehicles.

nUnder extreme usage or temperature condi- tions, battery pack leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash imme- diately with soap and water. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention.

nDo not dispose of batteries in a fire. The cell may explode. Batteries should be recycled, con- sult your local waste authority for information regarding available recycling and/or disposal options.

nWhen battery pack is not in use, 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 pack terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire.

nSave these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also.
