1. This manual contains important safety and operating
instructions.
2. Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary
markings on (1) battery charger, (2) battery pack, and (3)
product using battery pack.
3. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, charge only
Black & Decker Battery Packs. Other types of batteries may
burst causing personal injury and damage.
4. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
5. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Black &
Decker may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons.
6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug
rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on,
tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk
of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
a. Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire
extension cords. Only round jacketed extension cords
should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by
Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.). If the extension is to be
used outside, the cord must be suitable for outdoor use.
Any cord marked for outdoor use can also be used for
indoor work. The letters "W" or "WA" on the cord jacket
indicate that the cord is suitable for outdoor use.
b. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG
or American Wire Gauge) for safety, and to prevent loss of
power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of
the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable; that is, 16
gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more

prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e.,
packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are
properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting
individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are
protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them
and cause a short circuit.
