SAFETY RULES



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 terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a

fire and can lead to personal injury or property damage.



Always remove battery pack from your tool when you

are assembling parts, making adjustments, cleaning,

or when not in use.

Removing battery pack will prevent

accidental starting that could cause serious personal

injury.



Always remove battery pack before storing the device.



When battery becomes fully charged, unplug the

charger from the power supply and remove the bat-

tery pack from the charger.



Always wear eye protection with side shields marked

to comply with ANSI Z87.1.

Failure to do so could result

in objects being thrown into your eyes and other possible

serious injuries.



Keep battery pack dry, clean, and free from oil and

grease.

Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never

use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or

any solvents to clean battery pack.



Do not use a battery pack that is damaged or modified.

Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable

behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.



Do not modify or attempt to repair a battery pack that

has been damaged.



Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or

excessive temperature.

Exposure to fire or temperature

above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.



Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person

using only identical replacement parts.

This will ensure

that the safety of the product is maintained.



Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance be-

fore making any adjustments, changing accessories,

or storing appliance.

Such preventive safety measures

reduce the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.

Note:

This warning is not applicable for batteries that

cannot be disconnected from the appliance in normal

use.



Recharge only with the charger specified by the

manufacturer.

A charger that is suitable for one type

of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with

another battery pack.



Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the

battery pack or appliance outside of the temperature

range specified in the instructions.

Charging improperly

or at temperatures outside of the specified range may

damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.



Save these instructions.

Refer to them frequently and

use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you

loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also.

WARNING!

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result

in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.



Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an elec-

trical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating

condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not

using your battery tool or when changing accessories.

Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,

fire, or serious personal injury.



Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire

or heat.

This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly

injury.



Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not

use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped

or received a sharp blow.

A damaged battery is subject

to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged

battery immediately.



Batteries 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 can

propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water

immediately.



Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet location.

Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.



Do not store or charge battery packs in locations

where the temperature is less than 50°F or more than

100°F.

Do not store outside or in vehicles.



Charge only with RYOBI 40 V lithium-ion battery

chargers.

Use of other chargers may result in personal

injury, fire, or damage.



Do not charge battery in an area of extreme heat or

cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.



Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, bat-

tery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with

your skin, wash immediately with soap and water. If

liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water

for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical

attention.

Following this rule will reduce the risk of seri-

ous personal injury.
