BATTERY SAFETY
n Battery operated units do not have to be plugged into
an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in oper-
ating condition. Be aware of possible hazards even
when unit is not operating.
n Remove the battery pack from the chain saw before
cleaning, servicing, storing, removing material from the
unit, changing accessories such as the bar and chain,
or when not in use.
n A battery pack must be recharged only with the speci-
fied charger for the battery pack. A charger that may
be suitable for one type of battery pack may create a
risk of fire when used with another battery pack. Use
battery pack only with charger listed.

or 140237021
n To reduce the risk of explosion and possible injury, Do
not place battery units or their batteries near fire or heat.
n Do not open or mutilate the battery pack. Released
electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the
eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
n A damaged battery pack is subject to explosion. To
avoid serious personal injury, properly dispose of a
damaged battery pack.
n Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can 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 open flame. An
exploded battery pack can propel debris and chemi-
cals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.
n Do not charge unit in a damp or wet location. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.
n For best results, your battery unit should be charged
in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F
(10°C) but less than 100°F (38°C). Do not store outside
or in vehicles.
n Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, bat-
tery pack leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact
with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water,
then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets
into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least
10 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention.
n Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The cell may
explode. Batteries should be recycled, consult your
local waste authority for information regarding available
recycling and/or disposal options.
n When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery pack terminals together may cause sparks,
burns, or a fire.
SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER
CHARGER SAFETY
n Save these instructions. This manual contains impor-
tant Rules for Safe Operation and operating instruc-
tions for charger.
n Before using battery charger, read all instructions and
cautionary markings in this manual, on battery charger,
and product using battery charger.
n To reduce risk of injury, charge only nickel-cadmium
type rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries
may burst, causing personal injury and damage.
n Do not expose charger to wet or damp conditions.
n Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the
battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons.
n To reduce risk of damage to charger body and cord,
pull by charger plug rather than cord when discon-
necting charger.
n Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped
on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or
stress.
n An extension cord should not be used unless abso-
lutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could
result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If extension
cord must be used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the same
number, size and shape as those of plug on charger.
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating
of charger as specified below:
Cord Length (Feet) 25' 50' 100'
Cord Size (AWG) 16 16 16
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gage
n Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug.
If damaged, have replaced immediately by a qualified
serviceman.
n Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take
it to a qualified serviceman.
n Do not disassemble charger; take it to a qualified
serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect
reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
n To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the charger
from outlet before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
n Disconnect charger from power supply when not in
use.
n Risk of electric shock. Do not touch uninsulated por-
tion of output connector or uninsulated battery termi-
nal.
n Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this unit. If
you loan someone this unit, loan them these instruc-
tions also.
