Electrical Safety Rules for Battery Pack and Charger
WARNING
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to follow safety rules
listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or personal injury:
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool. Never pull on the cord
to remove the plug from the power outlet. Keep cords away from heat, oil,
sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. They may create
a fire. Do not use.
• Do not place the charger where the power cord might be stepped on, tripped on, or
subjected to damage.
• A battery-operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be
recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. A charger that may be
suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery.
• Use a battery-operated tool only with the specifically designated battery pack. Use
of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
Grounding (Fig. 2)
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides the path of least
resistance for electric current, and reduces the risk of electric shock. This battery
charger is double insulated and has a two-prong non-polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. DO NOT change the plug in any way. IN ALL
cases make sure the outlet is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a certified
electrician check the power outlet.

Extension Cords (Fig. 3)
Do not use an extension cord for the charger unless absolutely necessary. If you use
an extension cord make sure the cord is in good condition.
Use one heavy enough to carry the current your charger will draw. An undersized
extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. The table below shows the correct size of extension cord to use,
depending on cord length and the charger's ampere rating listed on the nameplate. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number is, the heavier
the cord.
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition. Always
replace a damaged cord or have it repaired by a qualified electrician. Protect your
extension cord from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas. Use a
separate electric circuit for your tools. Never use any other voltage or power source
than common household 120 V electrical power. The circuit must not be less than a
#14 wire and should be protected with a 15 A time-lag fuse. Before connecting the
charger to the power line, make sure the electric current is rated the same as the
current stamped on the charger nameplate. To reduce the risk of disconnection of
charger cord from the extension cord during operation make a knot (Fig. 3).
