To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, wear approved safety equipment
such as dust and / or vapor masks that are specifically designed to filter out
microscopic particles or gaseous components. Additionally, dust created by
these products may contain allergens, bacteria and viruses, PM 10 and / or PM
2.5 particulates, exposure to such hazardous airborne matter can be reduced
by wearing approved safety equipment such as dust masks that are specifically
designed to filter out the microscopic particles.
WARNING: Breathing asbestos or dust with silica in its composition may
contain hazardous crystalline silica. Silica is a fundamental component of sand,
quartz, brick, clays, granite and many other materials and rocks, including
masonry, concrete and cement products. Such crystalline silica dust is
dangerous and must be avoided, as it can cause severe or fatal respiratory
illness or cancer.
BATTERY & CHARGER SAFETY
WARNING: Only use the diagnostic charger supplied with this kit to
charge the 20V Li-ion battery. Charging any other batteries may damage
the charger and possibly cause serious injury.
Do not store or carry the battery in a manner in which metal objects could
contact the exposed metal end. Do not place the battery in aprons, pockets,
drawers, etc. with loose nails, screws, keys etc. The battery could short circuit
causing a fire, personal injury or damage to the battery.
Never attempt to open the battery for any reason. If the housing of the battery
breaks or cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not recharge.
Do not charge the battery if it is wet or shows any evidence of corrosion.
A small leakage from the battery may occur under extreme usage, charging or
temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer
seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin, follow these steps:
1. Wash immediately with soap and water.
2. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
3. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush immediately with clean water for a minimum
of 10 minutes and seek medical attention.
NOTE: The battery liquid is slightly acidic.
Do not incinerate the battery. It can explode in a fire.
Do not use an extension cord. Plug the charging cord directly into an electrical
outlet.
Use the charger only in a standard 120V, 60 Hz electrical outlet.
Do not use the charger in wet or damp conditions. It is intended for indoor use
only. Do not use the charger near sinks or tubs. Do not immerse the charger in
water.
Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of a table or counter or touch hot
surfaces. The charger should be placed away from sinks and hot surfaces.
