IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations
and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions
for future reference.
The term ″power tool″ in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool
or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work Area Safety
1.
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2.
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.
3.
Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions
. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
Personal Safety
1.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication.
A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection.
Protective equipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before connecting to
power source
and/or battery pack, picking up
or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the
switch
or energizing power
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
4.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on.
A wrench or
a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
5.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
6.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
7.
If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used.
Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
8.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles.
A careless action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
9. Only use safety equipment that has been approved
by an appropriate standards agency. Unapproved
safety equipment may not provide adequate
protection. Eye protection must be ANSI-approved
and breathing protection must be NIOSH-approved
for the specific hazards in the work area.
10. Do not lay the tool down until it has come to
a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
11. When using a handheld power tool,
maintain a firm grip on the tool with both
hands to resist starting torque.
12. Do not leave the tool unattended when the
Battery Pack is connected. Turn off the tool,
and remove the Battery Pack before leaving.
