Stihl FSA 90 R Instruction Manual - Page 9

Use only for charging geometrically matching STIHL batteries with a maximum capacity of 50 Ah and a maximum voltage of 42 V. WARNING Never charge defective, damaged, cracked, deformed or leaking batteries. To reduce the risk of shock and/or fire, connect the charger only to a power supply with the voltage and frequency specified on the rating plate. Always plug the charger into a properly installed wall outlet. Do not use an extension cord unless absolutely neccessary (see below). Protect the charger from rain and dampness. Keep charger dry. Never bridge the contacts of the charger with metallic objects (e.g. nails, coins, jewelry) - short circuit. The charger will be damaged by a short circuit. In the event of smoke or fire in the charger, disconnect it from outlet immediately. WARNING To reduce the risk of electric shock or short circuit, do not insert any objects into the charger's cooling slots. WARNING The charger heats up during the charging process. Do not operate on an easily combustible surface (e.g. paper, cardboard, textiles) or in an easily combustible environment - risk of fire. WARNING Never insert a wet battery into the charger. Such a battery could cause the charger to short circuit. Use and store charger only indoors in dry rooms. Operate charger at temperatures between 41 °F (5 °C) and 104 °F (40 °C). Allow the charger to cool down normally - do not cover it. WARNING Do not operate in a hazardous location, i.e. in a location where there are combustible liquids (fumes), vapors or dusts. Chargers can produce sparks, which may ignite the dust or vapors - risk of explosion. Never use a charger with damaged housing. Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any way. English Check the charger's power supply cord and plug regularly for damage. If the power supply cord or plug is damaged, immediately disconnect the plug from the wall outlet to avoid the risk of electric shock. Never jerk the power supply cord to disconnect it from the wall outlet. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord. Have a damaged power supply cord repaired by an experienced electrician. Do not use the power supply cord for any other purpose, e.g. for carrying or hanging up the charger. Never use power supply cords that do not comply with regulations. Make sure the power supply cord is located and/or marked so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, come in contact with sharp edges or moving parts or otherwise be subjected to damage or stress. WARNING To reduce the risk of shock and/or overheating and fire, an extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. If an extension cord must be used, plug the charger into a properly wired 16 gauge (AWG 16) or heavier gauge extension cord with blades that are the same number, size and shapes as the blades on the charger.
