Battery Charger Safety

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. Keep your
battery charger clean; foreign objects or dirt may cause a short or block air vents. Failure
to follow these instructions may cause overheating or fire
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent
or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard
Warning: Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries
Use batteries correctly
• Only charge batteries using the charger provided. Only use batteries provided with this
power tool, or others recommended by the supplier. Keep batteries clean; foreign objects
or dirt may cause a short. Allow batteries to cool for 15 minutes after charging or heavy
use. Failure to follow these instructions may cause overheating or fire.
• When not in use batteries should be stored at room temperature (approx 20˚C). Ensure
that batteries cannot accidentally short in storage.
Battery and charger safety features
The battery and charger are fitted with a number of safety features which may be triggered
during charging or operation:
• Over-charge protection: Charger automatically switches off when the battery has reached
full charge capacity, protecting the internal components of the battery
• Over-discharge protection: Prevents the battery from discharging beyond the
recommended lowest safety voltage
• Over-heat protection: Sensor switches off the tool if the battery becomes too hot during
operation. This can happen if the tool is overloaded or being used for extended periods
of time. Up to 30 minutes' cooling time may be required, depending on the ambient
temperature
• Overload protection: Battery temporarily stops if it is overloaded or the maximum current
draw is exceeded, protecting the internal components. The battery will resume normal
operation when the current draw returns to a normal safe level. This may take a few
seconds
• Short circuit protection: The battery will stop working immediately if a short circuit occurs,
this prevents damage to the battery or tool
