Distractions can cause you t o lose control.
Electrical Safety
A battery operated tool w i t h integral batteries or a separate battery pack must
be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. A charger that
may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used w i t h
another battery.
Use battery operated tool only w i t h specifically designated battery pack. Use
of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
