e.  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.
f.  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.
g.  Do not use a battery pack or power tool that 
is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified 
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior 
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
h.  Do not expose a battery pack or power 
tool to fire or excessive temperature. 
Exposure to fire or temperature above 
140°F may cause explosion.
i.  Follow all charging instructions and do 
not charge the battery pack or power tool 
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.
j.  Have servicing performed by a qualified 
repair person using only identical 
replacement parts. This will ensure that 
the safety of the product is maintained.
k.  Do not modify or attempt to repair the power 
tool or the battery pack except as indicated 
in the instructions for use and care.
l.  The battery Charger gets hot during 
use.  The Charger’s heat can build up 
to unsafe levels and create a fire 
hazard if it does not receive adequate 
ventilation, due to an electrical fault, or if it is used 
in a hot environment.  Do not place the Charger 
on a flammable surface.  Do not obstruct any 
vents on the Charger.  Especially avoid placing 
the Charger on carpets and rugs; they are not 
only flammable, but they also obstruct vents 
under the Charger.  Place the Charger on a 
stable, solid, nonflammable surface (such as a 
stable metal workbench or concrete floor) at least 
1 foot away from all flammable objects, such as 
drapes or walls.  Keep a fire extinguisher and a 
smoke detector in the area.  Frequently monitor 
the Charger and Battery Pack while charging.
