Model: PMD8141 Owner’s Manual
Your risk from these types of exposures varies depending on how often you do
this type of work and what type of work you are doing. To reduce your risks,
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with specially designed equipment and masks.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY CHARGER:
1. This manual includes important safety instructions for the battery charger.
Fully read all instructions and warning labels before using the battery or bat-
tery charger.
2. To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury, use ONLY the battery charger
supplied with this unit to charge the battery(ies).
3. Do NOT expose the battery or battery charger to rain or moisture.
4. Use of any attachment not recommended in this manual may result in the risk
of fire, electric shock or injury to a person and will void the warranty.
5. To reduce the risk of damaging the battery charger power cord, be sure to pull
the plug rather then the cord when disconnecting it from the power supply.
Always position the cord so it will not be stepped on or tripped over. This will
prevent damage to the cord.
6. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an
improper extension cord can result in risk of fire or electric shock. If using an
extension cord make sure that:
A) The pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number,
size and shape as those on the plug on the charger.
B) The extension cord is properly wired and in good working condition.
C) The wire size is the same or larger than the ones specified below:
Recommended size of Extension Cord for Battery Charger
Length of Cord (Feet) 25 50 100 150
AWG Size of Cord* 18 18 16 14
*The smaller the AWG (American Wire Gauge) number of the extension cord,
the higher the capacity of the cable for conducting current to ensure proper us-
age of the tool.
7. Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug.
8. Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or
damaged in any other way.
9. Do not open the saw, battery or battery charger. There are no user serviceable
parts. Opening the unit will void the warranty.
10. Unplug the charger from its power source when not in use.
11. Do not touch the terminals inside the battery charger with any other metal
object such as nails or coins. This can short the charger.
12. Do not store the unit in areas where the temperature can exceed 120°F.
13. Do not throw the battery or battery charger in fire. This can cause an
explosion.
14. WARINING: Batteries vent hydrogen gas and may explode in the
presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of
an open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If
exposed, flush with water immediately for a minimum of 10 minutes and
seek medical attention.
15. During extreme conditions, the battery may leak. This does not indicate a
battery failure. However, if the liquid gets on your skin, immediately wash
with soap and water, neutralize the area with a mild acid such as lemon
juice or vinegar. If the liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean
water immediately for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek medical
attention.
