◾
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with grounded power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
◾
Do not expose to the charger to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering the charger will increase
the risk of electric shock.
◾
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling, or unplugging the charger. Keep
the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
◾
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is grounded.
◾
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use
of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.

repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the charger
is maintained.
◾
When servicing a charger, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance
instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.

SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER

CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or
damage to the charger and battery, charge only those
lithium-ion rechargeable batteries specifically designated
on your charger's label. Other types of batteries may
burst, causing personal injury or damage.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,

56 VOLT RAPID CHARGER — CH5500E
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
◾
Before using the battery charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings in this manual
and on the battery charger, the battery and the product
using the battery to prevent misuse of the products
and possible injury or damage.
◾
Do not use the charger outdoors or expose it to
wet or damp conditions. Water entering the charger
will increase the risk of electric shock.
◾
Do not handle charger, including the charger
plug and charger terminals with wet hands.
◾
Use of an attachment not recommended or
sold by the battery-charger manufacturer may
result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons.
◾
Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
◾
Do not abuse the cord or charger. Never use the
cord to carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord
to disconnect the plug from a receptacle. Damage to
the cord or charger could occur and create an electric
shock hazard. Replace damaged cords immediately.
◾
Make sure that the cord is located so that it
will not be stepped on, tripped over, come in
contact with sharp edges or moving parts, or
otherwise be subjected to damage or stress.
This will reduce the risk of accidental falls, which could
cause injury and damage to the cord, which could then
result in electric shock.
◾
Keep the cord and charger from heat to prevent
damage to housing or internal parts.
◾
Do not allow gasoline, oils, petroleum-based
products, etc. to come in contact with plastic
parts. These materials contain chemicals that can
damage, weaken, or destroy plastic.
◾
Do not operate the charger with a damaged
cord or plug, which could cause shorting
and electric shock. If damaged, have the charger
repaired or replaced by an authorized service
technician at an EGO Service Center.
◾
Do not operate the charger if it has received
a sharp blow, been dropped, or has otherwise
been damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized
service technician for an electrical check to determine
if the charger is in good working order.
