Protection from environmental infuences

1. Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety goggles.
2. Protect your cordless tool and the battery charger from

moisture and rain. Moisture and rain can cause dangerous

cell damage.

3. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery charger near

vapors and flammable liquids.

4. Use the battery charger and cordless tools only in dry

conditions and at an ambient temperature of 50-104°F

(10-40°C).

5. Do not keep the battery charger in places where the

temperature is liable to reach over 104°F (40°C). In

particular, do not leave the battery charger in a car that is

parked in the sunshine.

6. Protect batteries from overheating. Overloads,

overcharging and exposure to direct sunlight will result

in overheating and cell damage. Never charge or work

with batteries that have been overheated – replace them

immediately, if possible.

7. Store the charger and your cordless tool only in dry

locations with an ambient temperature of 50-104°F

(10-40°C). Store your lithium-ion battery pack in a cool,

dry place at a temperature of 50-68°F (10-20°C). Protect

the battery pack, charger and cordless tool from humidity

and direct sunlight. Only place fully charged batteries in

storage (charged to at least 40%).

8. Prevent the lithium-ion battery pack from freezing. Battery

packs that were stored below 32°F (0°C) for more than 60

minutes must be discarded.

9. When handling batteries, be wary of electrostatic charge.

Electrostatic discharges can damage the electronic

protection system and the battery cells. Avoid electrostatic

charging and never touch the battery poles.
