Important Safety Instructions (For Battery Packs
and Charger)
WARNING:
When using electric tools, basic safety pre-
cautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the fol-
lowing:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
Do not store -or- carry battery such that metal objects
can contact exposed metal end. For example, do not
place battery in aprons, tool boxes, pockets, drawers,
desk, etc… with loose nails, screws, keys, etc…without
battery cap. Battery pack could short circuit causing fire,
burns, or damage to the battery.
DANGER:
Never attempt to open the battery pack for
any reason. If the housing of the battery breaks -or-
cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not re-
charge.
Do not incinerate the battery pack as it can explode in a
fire. A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may
occur under extreme usage, charging, or temperature
conditions. This does not indicate a failure. However, if
the outer seal is broken and this leakage contacts your
skin:
a.) Wash quickly with soap and water;
b.) Neutralize with a mild acid such as vinegar -or-
lemon juice.
c.) If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with
clean water for a minimum of ten (10) minutes and seek
immediate medical attention.
Medical Note:
The liquid is a 25-35% solution of potas-
sium hydroxide.
Charge batteries only with Eastman charger.
Do not use charger in wet –or- damp conditions. It is
intended for indoor use only. Do not use near sinks, tubs,
etc… Do not immerse in water.
Do not use the charger for any uses other than charging
Eastman battery packs. Other batteries may explode.
Do not operate charger with a damaged cord –or-
plug…have them replaced immediately.
Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in anyway; contact
your qualified Eastman representative for service.
Do not disassemble charger; contact your qualified East-
man representative when service -or- repair is required.
Incorrect assembly may result in risk of electric shock -or-
fire. There are no consumer serviceable parts inside.
For best results, do not charge batteries when they -or-
the air temperature is BELOW +40
o
Fahrenheit -or-
ABOVE +105
o
Fahrenheit.
The charger is designed to operate on standard house-
hold electrical power (120 Volts AC). Do not attempt to
use it on any other voltage. Be sure your power supply
agrees with the nameplate marking.
Unplug charger when not in use.
Do not abuse charger cord. To reduce the risk of damage
to the electric plug and cord, never carry charger by cord
–or- sharply pull it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep
charger cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
Use only charger supplied by Eastman to recharge.
WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark
work areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such
as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Do not abuse cord. Never use the cord to carry the charger.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords
may create a fire.
Use battery pack designated for your tool. Use of any
other batteries may cause risk of fire.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating the Worker Bee. Do not use tool
while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating may result in
serious personal injury.
Dress properly, Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Contain long hair. Keep you hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair can

Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch (A) is in locked or
off position before inserting the battery pack. Carrying tools
with you finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into
the tool with the switch on invites accidents.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection and dust
mask for appropriate conditions.
