In some areas, it is illegal to placespent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ionbatteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream andthe Call 2 Recycle program provides an environmentallyconscious alternative.Call 2 Recycle, Inc., in cooperation with CRAFTSMAN andother battery users, has established the program in theUnited States and Canada to facilitate the collection ofspent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ionbatteries. Help protect our environment and conservenatural resources by returning the spent nickel cadmium,nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries to anauthorized service center or to your local retailer forrecycling. You may also contact your local recycling centerfor information on where to drop off the spent battery.RBRC is a registered trademark of Call 2 Recycle, Inc.Transportation WARNING:Fire hazard.

This will reduce the risk ofdamage to the electric plug and cord.Make sure that the cord is located so that it will notbe stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjectedto damage or stress.Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutelynecessary. Use of improper extension cord could result inrisk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.When operating a charger outdoors, always providea dry location and use an extension cord suitablefor outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor usereduces the risk of electric shock.An extension cord must have adequate wire size(AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. Thesmaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater thecapacity of the cable, that is, 16 gauge has more capacitythan 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop inline voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.When using more than one extension to make up thetotal length, be sure each individual extension contains atleast the minimum wire size. The following table showsthe correct size to use depending on cord length andnameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heaviergauge. The lower the gauge number, the heavier the cord.Minimum Gauge for Cord SetsTotal Length of Cord in FeetVolts(meters)120 V25 (7.6) 50 (15.2) 100 (30.5) 150 (45.7)240 V50 (15.2) 100 (30.5) 200 (61.0) 300 (91.4)Ampere RatingMoreNotAmerican Wire GaugeThan ot Recommended Do not place any object on top of the charger orplace the charger on a soft surface that might block the ventilation slots and result in excessive internalheat. Place the charger in a position away from any heatsource. The charger is ventilated through slots in the topand the bottom of the housing.Do not operate the charger with a damaged cordor plug–have them replaced immediately.Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharpblow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in anyway. Take it to an authorized service center.Do not disassemble the charger; take it to anauthorized service center when service or repair isrequired. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk ofelectric shock, electrocution or fire.Disconnect the charger from the outlet beforeattempting any cleaning. This will reduce the riskof electric shock. Removing the battery pack will notreduce this risk.NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.The charger is designed to operate on standard120V household electrical power. Do not attempt touse it on any other voltage. This does not apply to thevehicular charger. WARNING: WARNING:Shock hazard. Do not allowany liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shockmay result.Burn hazard. Do notsubmerge the battery pack in any liquid or allow anyliquid to enter the battery pack. Never attempt toopen the battery pack for any reason. If the plastichousing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return toa service center for recycling. CAUTION:Burn hazard. To reduce therisk of injury, charge only CRAFTSMAN rechargeablebattery packs. Other types of batteries mayoverheat and burst resulting in personal injury andproperty damage.
