• Ensure that the AC voltage supplied to the charger is within the ranges in
the specification table. Voltages outside this range, particularly high
voltages, can result in an electric shock and fire hazard.
• If you use an extension power cable with your charger, ensure the total
current draw of the items plugged into the extension power cable do no
exceed the current rating of the extension cable and meet all national and
local electrical code requirements. See Specifications page for current draw
of charger. Overloaded extension cords can catch fire and cause property
damage, serious injury or death.
• Do not operate charger if wiring is damaged including cut insulation or
pinched wires. An electric shock could cause serious injury, or death.
Safety: Batteries
• See battery suppliers guide for proper care of batteries and follow directions
carefully. Failure to follow battery care instructions can result in battery
explosion and property damage, severe injury, or death during charging.
• When attaching charger leads to battery terminals be careful that tools do
not short between battery terminals. Shorting between battery terminals
may cause extreme arcing resulting in explosion or extreme heat that can
cause burns.
• Do not disconnect charger terminals while batteries are charging. Sparking
can occur which could ignite flammable battery gases and cause an
explosion. Always turn the charger off first (unplug from AC).
• Do not touch battery terminals or any exposed electrical parts. Contact with
battery terminals or other exposed electrical parts may cause an electric
shock. Remove all watches, rings, and jewelry to avoid arcing and electric
shock.
