Disconnect the jobsite fan from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. This will reduce
the risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk
WARNING: Do not use the fan with any solid-state speed control device.
CAUTION: When not in use, place the jobsite fan on its back on a stable
surface where it will not cause a tripping or falling hazard Some tools with
large battery packs will stand upright on the battery pack but may be easily
knocked over.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may
cuase serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Air vents often
cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
7 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERIES AND
CHARGERS
Use only batteries and chargers applicable for this machine.
7.1 Batteries
Never attempt to open for any reason.
Do not store in locations where the temperature may exceed 40 °C.
Charge only at ambient temperatures between 4 °C and 40 °C.
Store your batteries in a cool dry place (5 °C-20 °C). Never store batteries in discharged
state.
It is better for Li-ion batteries to discharge and reload them regularly (at least 4 times a
year). The ideal charge for long-term storage of your Li-ion battery is 40% of capacity.
When disposing of batteries, follow the instructions given in the section “Protecting the
environment”.
Do not cause short circuits. If connection is made between the positive (+) and negative (-)
terminal directly or via accidental contact with metallic objects, the battery is short circuited
and an intense current will flow causing heat generation which may lead to casing rupture
or fire.
Do not heat. If batteries are heated to above 100 °C, sealing and insulating separators
and other polymer components may be damaged resulting in electrolyte leakage and/or
internal short circuiting leading to heat generation causing rupture or file. Moreover do not
dispose of the batteries in fire, explosion and/or intense burning may result.
Under extreme conditions, battery leakage may occur. When you notice liquid on the
battery, proceed as follows:
−Carefully wipe the liquid off using a cloth. Avoid skin contact.
−In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions below:
Immediately rinse with water. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or
vinegar.
In case of eye contact, rinse abundantly with clean water for at least 10 minutes.
Consult a physician.
Fire hazard! Avoid short-circuiting the contacts of a detached battery. Do
not incinerate the battery.
