Important Safety Instructions for All
Battery Chargers

WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all instructions for
the battery pack, charger and power tool. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.
• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers
other than the ones in this manual. The charger and battery pack are
specifically designed to work together.
• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging
PORTER-CABLE rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in
risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
• Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the
charger. This will reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.
• Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on,
tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely necessary. Use of
improper extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• When operating a charger outdoors, always provide a dry
location and use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or
American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number
of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is, 16 gauge has
more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than
one extension to make up the total length, be sure each individual extension
contains at least the minimum wire size. The following table shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.
Minimum Gauge for Cord Sets
Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet (meters)
120 V 25 (7.6) 50 (15.2) 100 (30.5) 150 (45.7)
240 V 50 (15.2) 100 (30.5) 200 (61.0) 300 (91.4)

• Do not place any object on top of the charger or place the charger
on a soft surface that might block the ventilation slots and result
in excessive internal heat. Place the charger in a position away from
any heat source. The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and the
bottom of the housing.
• Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord or plug.
• Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been
dropped or otherwise damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized
service center.
• Do not disassemble the charger; take it to an authorized service
center when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may
result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
• Disconnect the charger from the outlet before attempting any
cleaning. This will reduce the risk of electric shock. Removing the
battery pack will not reduce this risk.
• NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
• The charger is designed to operate on standard 120V household
electrical power. Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage.
This does not apply to the vehicular charger.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the
charger. Electric shock may result.

WARNING: Burn hazard. Do not submerge the battery pack in any
liquid or allow any liquid to enter the battery pack. Never attempt
to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the
battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.

CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only
PORTER-CABLE rechargeable battery packs. Other types of
batteries may overheat and burst resulting in personal injury and
property damage.
NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the
power supply, the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign
materials of a conductive nature, such as, but not limited to, grinding
dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic
particles should be kept away from the charger cavities. Always
unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery
pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean.
Transportation

WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry the battery pack
so that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For
example, do not place the battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool boxes,
product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.
Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery
terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive
materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US
Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR)
actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes
in carry-on baggage UNLESS they are properly protected from short
circuits. So when transporting individual battery packs, make sure that
the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials
that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
