Electric Safety

m
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
1. Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may carry a risk of fire if used with another
battery pack.
2. When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
3. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the
battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush
with water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek additional medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
4. Do not expose the battery pack or device to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperatures
above 265ºF (130ºC) may cause explosion.
5. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or device outside of the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside of the specified range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Battery & Charger Safety
Instructions
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,
durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially
formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the
best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be
exercised when handling batteries. The following points must
be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only
be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling
of the battery pack may cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT! Analyses show that incorrect use and poor care
of high-performance batteries are the main factors responsible
for personal and/or product damage.
m
WARNING!
Use only approved replacement batteries;
other batteries may damage the metal detector and cause it to
malfunction, which can lead to fire or serious personal injury.
m
WARNING!
Do not use the battery pack or device if
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or
risk of injury.
m
WARNING!
Do not modify or attempt to repair the
appliance or the battery pack except as indicated in the
instructions for use and care.
m
WARNING!
Have your battery pack serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the battery pack is
maintained.
m
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of injury, charge the
Sun Joe 24V lithium-ion battery pack only with the provided
®
charger or the chargers shown in the optional accessories
panel. Other types of chargers present risk of fire, personal
injury and damage. Do not connect the battery pack to an
unspecified power supply or 12V DC car charger. Such misuse
may permanently disable or damage the battery pack.
• Avoid dangerous environments – Do not charge the
battery pack in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations.
Do not use or charge the battery pack in the presence
of explosive gases, fumes, dust or flammable materials.
Sparks may be generated when inserting or removing the
battery pack, which could lead to a fire.
• Charge in a well-ventilated area – Do not block the
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow for proper
ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open flames near a
charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
NOTE: The safe temperature range for the battery is 41°F –
105ºF (5°C – 40.5°C). Do not charge the battery outside in
freezing weather; charge it at room temperature.
• Maintain charger cord – When unplugging the charger,
pull the plug, and not the cord from the AC power outlet to
reduce the risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord.
Never carry the charger by its cord or yank it by the cord
to disconnect it from the AC power outlet. Keep the cord
away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Make sure the cord
will not be stepped on, tripped over or subjected to damage
or stress when the charger is in use. Do not use the charger
with a damaged cord or plug. Replace a damaged charger
immediately.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
necessary – Using the wrong, damaged or improperly
wired extension cord poses a risk of fire and electric shock.
If an extension cord must be used, plug the charger into a
properly wired 16 gauge or larger extension cord with the
female plug matching the male plug on the charger. Make
sure that the extension cord is in good electrical condition.
• Use only recommended attachments – Use of any
attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer
may result in a risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury.
• Unplug charger when not in use.
m
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
always unplug the charger before performing any cleaning
or maintenance. Do not allow water to flow into the charger.
Use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce shock
hazards.
