GENERAL SAFETY RULES — FOR ALL BATTERY OPERATED TOOLS
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
1.
Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and
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 bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a
power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect oth-
ers in the work area from debris such as chips and sparks. Provide
barriers or shields as needed.

SERVICE
4.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace
damaged cords immediately.
Damaged cords may create a fire.
5.
A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate bat-
tery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for
the battery.
A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery
may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.
6.
Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated bat-
tery pack.
Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
13.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against
your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
14.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application.
The
correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed.
15.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off.
A tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be re-
paired.
16.
Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the
locked or off position before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool.
Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
17.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained per-
sons.
Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
18.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal
objects like: 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 sparks,
burns, or a fire.
19.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edge are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
20.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s opera-
tion. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using.
Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained tools. Do not use a damaged
tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.
21.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufac-
turer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool
may create a risk of injury when used on another tool.
7.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense
when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or un-
der the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious per-
sonal injury.
8.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain
long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from mov-
ing parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in mov-
ing parts.
9.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or off
position before inserting battery pack.
Carrying tools with your
finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into a tool with the
switch on invites accidents.
10.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on.
A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool
may result in personal injury.
11.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enable better control of the tool in unex-
pected situations.
12.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for
appropriate conditions.
22.
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair person-
nel.
Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may
result in a risk of injury.
23.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Fol-
low instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual.
Use
of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may
create a risk of shock or injury.
