34) DO NOT SHORT CIRCUIT. A short circuited
battery pack may cause fire, personal injury, and
product damage. A battery pack will short circuit
if a metal object makes a connection between the
positive and negative contacts on the battery pack.
Do not place a battery pack near anything that may
cause a short circuit, such as coins, keys or nails
in your pocket.
35) DO NOT ALLOW FLUIDS TO FLOW INTO BAT-
TERY PACK. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such
as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and
bleach or bleach containing products, etc., can
cause a short circuit.
36) DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS IT
IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. Using the wrong,
damaged or improperly wired extension cord could
result in the risk of fire and electrical shock. If an
extension cord must be used, plug the charger
into a properly wired 16 gauge or larger extension
cord with pins that are the same number, size and
shape as the pins on the charger. Make sure that
the extension cord is in good electrical condition.
37) USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ATTACHMENTS.
Use of an attachment not recommended or sold
by the battery charger or battery pack manufac-
turer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock or
personal injury.
38) UNPLUG CHARGER when not in use. Remove
battery packs from unplugged chargers.
39) TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,
always unplug charger before cleaning or main-
tenance. Use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) to reduce shock hazards.
40) STORE YOUR BATTERY PACK AND CHARGER
in a cool, dry place. Do not store battery pack
where temperatures may exceed 120°F (50°C)
such as in direct sunlight, a vehicle or metal build-
ing during the summer.

WARNING
proved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These lim-
its are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential instal-
lation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television recep-
tion, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

EXTENSION CORDS

Double insulated tools can use either a two or three
wire extension cord. As the distance from the sup-
ply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge
extension cord. Using extension cords with inad-
equately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage,
resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage.
Refer to the table shown to determine the required
minimum wire size.
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater
the capacity of the cord. For example, a 14 gauge
cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.
When using more than one extension cord to make
up the total length, be sure each cord contains at
least the minimum wire size required. If you are using
one extension cord for more than one tool, add the
nameplate amperes and use the sum to determine
the required minimum wire size.
Guidelines for Using Extension Cords
• If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure
it is marked with the suffix "W-A" ("W" in Canada) to
indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
• Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in
good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged
extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified
person before using it.
• Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
• Unplug all cords during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO
USER-SERVICABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICI-
ING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equi-
lateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence
of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is in-
tended to alert the user to the presence of important operat-
ing and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the appliance.
