If extension cord must be used make sure:
a. That blades of extension cord are the same
number, size, and shape as those of plug on
battery 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 battery charger as specifi ed in Table 1.

Follow these instructions to avoid the risk of injury:
WARNING:
Improper use of the battery
or battery charger can lead to
serious injury. To avoid these
injuries:
1. NEVER disassemble the battery.
2. NEVER incinerate the battery, even if it is damaged or
is completely worn out. The battery can explode in a
fi re.
3. NEVER short-circuit the battery.
4. NEVER insert any objects into the battery charger’s
air vents. Electric shock or damage to the battery
charger may result.
5. NEVER charge outdoors. Keep the battery away
from direct sunlight and use only where there is low
humidity and good ventilation.
6. NEVER charge when the temperature is below 14°F
(-10°C) or above 104°F (40°C).
7. NEVER connect two battery chargers together.
8. NEVER insert foreign objects into the hole for the
battery or the battery charger.
9. NEVER use a booster transformer when charging.
10. NEVER use DC power to charge.
11. NEVER store the battery or battery charger in places
where the temperature may reach or exceed 104°F
(40°C) such as inside metal box or car.
12. NEVER expose the battery or battery charger to rain
or wet conditions
13. ALWAYS operate charger on standard household
electrical power (120 volts). Using the charger on any
other voltage may overheat and damage the charger.
14. ALWAYS wait at least 15 minutes between charges to
avoid overheating the charger.
15. ALWAYS disconnect the power cord from its
receptacle when the charger is not in use.
* If the input rating of a battery charger is given in watts
rather than in amperes, the corresponding ampere
rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage
rating by the voltage rating–for example:
1,250 watts
= 10 amperes
125 volts
8. Do not operate battery charger with damaged cord or
plug-replace them immediately.
9. Do not operate battery charger if it has received a
sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in
any way; take it to a qualifi ed serviceman.
10. Do not disassemble battery charger and the battery;
take it to a qualifi ed serviceman when service or
repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in
a risk of electric shock or fi re.
11. You must charge the battery before you can use the
power tool.
12. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the charger
from the electrical outlet when not in use, as well as
before maintenance or cleaning.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR USE OF THE BATTERY AND
BATTERY CHARGER
You must charge the battery before you can use the power
tool. Before using the model UC18YSL3 / UC18YFSL
