IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not dispose of the batteries in a re. The cells may explode. Check with local codes for
possible special disposal instructions.
• Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
• Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause burns.
• Dress Properly – Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts.
Use of rubber gloves and substantial footwear is recommended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
• Do not add unnecessary force to your power tool – It will do the job better and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate for which it was designed.
• Recharge only with the charger specied by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of re when used with another battery pack.
• For use only with Briggs & Stratton batteries BSB2AH82 (2 amp-hour) or BSB4AH82 (4 amp-
hour). For use only with Briggs & Stratton charger BSRC82.
• 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 a re.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modied. Damaged or modied batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in re, explosion or risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery pack or power tools to re or excessive temperature. Exposure to re
or temperature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
