account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.

battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.
c. When 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.
d. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
6. Service

person using only identical replacement parts. This will
