Carefully unpack the tool and all loose items from the shipping container(s). Remove the protective coating from all
unpainted surfaces. This coating may be removed with a soft cloth moistened with kerosene (do not use acetone, gaso-
line or lacquer thinner for this purpose). After cleaning, cover the unpainted surfaces with a good quality paste wax.
FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT CONNECT THE TOOL TO THE POWER SOURCE UNTIL THE
TOOL IS COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED, AND YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND THE ENTIRE
OWNER’S MANUAL.
