DeWalt DCS355 Manual De Instrucciones página 7

• Before using the charged read all instructions and cautionary
markings on the charged battery pack and product using the
battery pack.
i_ WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the
charge_ Electric shock may result.
_CAUTION: Bum hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only
DE:WALTrechargeable battery packs. Other types of batteries may
overheat and burst resulting in personal injury and property damage.
NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into
the power supply, the charger can be shorted by foreign material
Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such as, but not limited to,
grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup
of metallic particles should be kept away from the charger cavities.
Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no
battery pack in the cavity, Unplug the charger before attempting to
clean.
DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any
chargers other than the ones in this manual The charger and
battery pack are specifically designed to work togethe_
These chargers are not intended for any uses other than
charging DEWALT rechargeable batteries. Any other uses
may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
• Puff by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting
the charger. This wil/ reduce the risk of damage to the e/ectric
plug and cord.
Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be
stepped 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.
When operating a charger outdoors, always provide a dry
location and use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
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. An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When
using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure
each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size.
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 lower the gauge numbed the heavier the cord.
