Metabo HPT RP 18DA Manual página 5

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. This manual contains important safety and
operating instructions for battery charger
Model UC18YFSL.
2. Before using battery charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings on (1)
battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product
using battery.
3. Plug of battery charger must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way.
Unmodifi ed plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the battery
charger.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
5. To reduce risk of injury, charge metabo HPT
rechargeable batteries. Other type of batteries
may burst causing personal injury and damage.
6. Use of an attachment not recommended or
sold by the battery charger manufacturer may
result in a risk of fi re, electric shock, or injury to
persons.
7. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and
cord, pull by plug when disconnecting battery
charger.
8. Make sure cord is located so that it will not
be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
9. An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Use of improper
extension cord could result in a risk of fi re and
electric shock.
If extension cord must be used make sure:
a. That blades of extension cord are the same
number, size, and shape as those of plug
on battery charger:
b. That extension cord is properly wired and
in good electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC
ampere rating of battery charger as
specifi ed in Table 1.

* If the input rating of a battery charger is given in
watts rather than in amperes, the corresponding
ampere rating is to be determined by dividing
the wattage rating by the voltage rating–for
example:
1,250 watts
125 volts
10. Do not operate battery charger with damaged
cord or plug-replace them immediately.
11. Do not operate battery charger if it has received
a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged in any way; take it to a qualifi ed
serviceman.
12. Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a
qualifi ed serviceman when service or repair is
required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a
risk of electric shock or fi re.
13. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug
charger from receptacle before attempting
any maintenance or cleaning. Removing the
battery will not reduce this risk.
