Extension
Cord
Make
sure your extension
cord is #1 good condition.
When
using an
extension
cord be sure it is heavy enough
to carry the current your
product
will draw. An undersized
extension
cord will cause
a drop in
line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
The following
table shows the correct size to use depending
on cord length and
nameplate
ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge.
The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.

Double
Insulation
Double
insulated
tools are constructed
throughout with two
separate
layers
of electrical
insulation
or one double thickness
of insulation
between
you and the tool's
electrical
system.
Tools built with this insulation
system
are not intended
to be
grounded.
As a result, your
tool is equipped
with a two prong
plug which permits
you to use extension
cords without
concern
for maintaining
a ground
connection.
NOTE:
Double
insulation
does
not take the place of normal
safety precautions
when operating
this
tool. The insulation
system
is for added protection
against injury
resulting
from a possible
electrical
insulation
failure within the tool.
REPLACEMENT
PARTS: When
servicing
all tools,
USE IDENTICAL
REPLACEMENT
PARTS.
Repair or replace
damaged
cords.
Important
Safety
Instructions
for
Battery
Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains
important
safety
instructions
for battery
chargers.
•
Before using charger,
read all instructions
and cautionary
markings
on charger,
battery pack,
and product
using battery pack.
WA RNING: Shock
hazard
0o not allow any ,quid to
get inside ci_arge_
s_CAUTION:
Burn hazard.
To reduce the dsk of injury, charge only
Black & Decker batteries.
Other types of batteries may burst causing
personal
injury and damage.
_CAUTION:
Under certain conditions,
with the charger plugged
#1 to
the power supply, the charger
can be shorted
by foreign material.
Foreign
materials
of a conductive
nature such as, but not limited to,
steel wool, aluminum
foil, or any buildup of metallic
particles should
be
kept away from charger cavities.
Always
unplug the charger from the
power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug
charger before
attempting
to dean.
•
The charger
supplied
with this product
is intended
to be
plugged
in such that
it is correctly
orientated
in a vertical
or
floor
mount
position.
_WARNING:
DO NOT attempt
to charge the battery
pack with any
chargers
other than the ones listed
in this manual.
The charger
and battery pack are specifically
designed
to work together.
These
chargers
are not intended
for any uses other than
charging
Slack&Decker
rechargeable
batteries.
Any other uses
may result in risk of fire, electric
shock
or electrocution.
_o
not expose
charger
to rain
or snow.
Pull by plug rather
than cord when
disconnecting
charger.
This will reduce
risk of damage
to electric
plug and cord.
Make
sure that
cord
is located
so that
it will not be stepped
5
on, tripped
over, or otherwise
subjected
to damage
or stress.
Do not use an extension
cord unless
it is absolutely
necessary.
Use of improper
extension
cord could
result
in risk of
fire, electric
shock,
or electrocution.
An extension
cord must have adequate
wire size (AWG or
American
Wire Gauge)
for safety.
The smaller the gauge number
of the wire, the greater the capacity
of the cable, that is 16 gauge
has more capacity
than
18 gauge.
When using more than
one
extension
to make
up the total length, be sure each individual
extension
contains at least the minimum
wire size.
DO not place any object
on top of charger
or place the
charger
on a soft surface that might block the ventilation
slots
and result in excessive
internal
heat. Place the charger
in a
position
away from any heat source. The charger
is ventilated
through
slots ill the top and the sides of the housing.
Do not mount
charger
on wall or permanently
affix
charger
to
any surface.
The charger
is intended to use on a flat, stable
surface
(i.e., table top, bench top).
Do not operate
charger with damaged
cord
or plug -- have
them replaced immediately.
Do not operate
charger
if it has received
a sharp blow,
been
dropped,
or otherwise
damaged
in any way. Take it to an
authorized
service
center.
Do not disassemble
charger;, take
it to an authorized
service
center
when
service
or repair
is required.
Incorrect
reassembiy
may result in a risk of electric
shock, electrocution
or fire.
Disconnect
the charger
from
the outlet
before
_tempting
any
cleaning.
This will reduce
the risk of electric
shock.
Removing
the battery
pack will not reduce this risk.
NEVER
attempt to connect 2 chargers
together.
The charger
is designed
to operate
on standard
household
electrical
power
(120 Volts). Do not attempt
to use it on any
other voltage.
