4) Power tool use and care
Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and more safely at the rate for
which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools.
Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tool’s operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories, tool
bits etc., in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed.
Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Battery tool use and care
Recharge only with the charger
specified by the manufacturer.
A
charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs.
Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
When the battery pack is not in use,
keep it away from other metal objects,
such as paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects
that can make a connection from one
terminal to another.
Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns or
a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may
be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
flush with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, flush with water and then seek
medical help.
Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) Service
Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts.
This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.

Hold power tools by their insulated
gripping surfaces when performing
an operation where the tool may
contact hidden wiring or its own
cord.
Contact with a “live” wire will also
make exposed metal parts of the tool
“live” and shock the operator.
Do not insert or try to insert your
finger into the hammer clamp at any
time.
Doing so could result in serious
personal injury.
Do not stare directly into the LED
worklight.
Never project the worklight
into someone else’s eyes.
Do not leave your hand on the nail
while hammering.
Use your hand only
to start the nail on the workpiece at the
