2 . Hold power tools by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring.
Contact with a “live”
wire will make exposed metal parts of the
tool “live” and shock the operator .
3 .
When working with the power tool,
always hold it firmly with both hands and
provide for a secure stance.
The power tool
is guided more securely with both hands .
4 .
keep the cord and charger from heat to
prevent damage to the housing or internal
parts.
5 .
Secure the workpiece.
Clamping
devices or a vise will hold the workpiece in
place better than the hand .
6 .
Do not allow gasoline, oils, petroleum-
based products, etc. to come in contact
with plastic parts.
These materials contain
chemicals that can damage, weaken, or
destroy plastic .
7 .
Always wait until the machine has
come to a complete stop before placing it
down.
The tool insert can jam and lead to
loss of control over the power tool .
8 .
Always set the direction-of-rotation
switch to the center (locked) position
before performing any kind of work on the
machine (e.g., maintenance, tool change,
etc.)
and when transporting and storing it .
Unintentional activation of the On/Off switch
may result in personal injury .
9 .
Do not open the battery.
There is risk of
a short circuit .
10 .
Protect the battery from heat and fire.
There is risk of explosion .
11 .
Wear ear protectors when using the
cordless drill/driver. Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss .
12 .
Use protective gloves when removing
the bit from the tool, or first allow the
clamp to cool down.
The bit may be hot
after prolonged use .
13 .
Use protective gloves when operating
the tool. Protective gloves can help to keep
you from being burnt and hurt .
14 .
keep your hands away from the motor-
housing vents. Hot gas comes from the
vents during operation .
15 .
Release the trigger immediately when
a screw is tightened to avoid breaking the
screw.
16 . For best results, your battery tool
should be charged in a location where the
temperature is more that 41°F (5°C) but
less that 122°F (50°C).
Do not store outside
or in vehicles .
