Electrical and battery safety
1. Avoid dangerous environment. Don't use the tool
in damp or wet locations or expose it to rain.
Water entering the tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.

manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one
type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery pack.
3. Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs
may create a risk of injury and fire.
4. When 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 terminals together
may cause burns or a fire.
5. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, seek medical help. Liquid ejected
from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
6. Do not dispose of the battery(ies) in a fire. The
cell may explode. Check with local codes for
possible special disposal instructions.

electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to
the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
8. Do not charge battery in rain, or in wet locations.
