Important charging notes:

Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air
temperature is between 10-40°C. Do not charge the battery pack in an air temperature below
10° C or above 40° C . This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.
§ The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while charging. This is a normal

condition, and does not indicate a problem.

§ The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs

which were easily done previously. Do not continue to use under these conditions. Follow
the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire
with no adverse affect on the battery pack.

§ Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply, the exposed

charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials
of a conductive nature such as, but no limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup
of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger
from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before
attempting to clean.

§ Do not immerse charger in water or any other liquid.

Warning: don't allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may
result. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use, avoid placing
the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal shed,
or an uninsulated trailer.

Caution: never attempt to open trie battery pack for any reason. If the
plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service-
centre for recycling.
