Work area

• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases,

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.

separate battery must be recharged only with the
specied charger for the battery. A charger that may be
suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of re
when used with another battery.

of re.
• Use only 40 V Kobalt batteries.

better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
