Battery Charger Safety

Use the battery charger correctly
• Refer to the section of this manual relating to use of the battery charger before
attempting to charge the battery.
• Do not attempt to use the charger with any batteries other than those supplied. Keep
your battery charger clean; foreign objects or dirt may cause a short or block air vents.
Failure to follow these instructions may cause overheating or fire
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard
• Examine the battery charger regularly for damage, especially the cord, plug and
enclosure. If the battery charger is damaged, it must not be used until it has been
repaired
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
Battery and charger safety features
The battery and charger are fitted with a number of safety features which may be triggered
during charging or operation:
• Over-charge protection: Charger automatically switches off when the battery has
reached full charge capacity, protecting the internal components of the battery
• Over-discharge protection: Prevents the battery from discharging beyond the
recommended lowest safety voltage
• Over-heat protection: Sensor switches off if the battery becomes too hot during
operation. This can happen if the tool is overloaded or being used for extended periods
of time. Up to 30 minutes cooling time may be required depending on the ambient
temperature
• Overload protection: Battery temporarily stops if it is overloaded or the maximum
current draw is exceeded, protecting the internal components. The battery will resume
normal operation when the current draw returns to a normal safe level. This may take a
few seconds
• Short circuit protection: The battery will stop working immediately if a short circuit
occurs, this prevents damage to the battery or tool
Use batteries correctly
• Only charge batteries using the charger provided. Only use batteries provided with
this power tool, or others recommended by the supplier. Keep batteries clean; foreign
objects or dirt may cause a short. Allow batteries to cool for 15 minutes after charging
or heavy use. Failure to follow these instructions may cause overheating or fire.
When not in use batteries should be stored at room temperature (approx 20˚C). Ensure that
batteries cannot accidentally short in storage.
