II. SPECIFIC
SAFETY RULES
1) Wear ear protection. Exposure to noise
can cause hearing loss.
2) Be aware that this tool is always in an
operating condition, since it does not have
to be plugged into an electrical outlet.
3) Hold power tools by insulated grip-
ping sur faces when performing an
operation where the cutting tool may
contact hid den wiring.
Contact with a “live” wire will make ex-
posed metal parts of the tool “live” and
shock the operator.
4) If the bit becomes jammed, immediately
turn the trigger switch off to prevent an
overload which can damage the battery
pack or motor. Use reverse motion to
loosen jammed bits.
5) Do NOT operate the Forward/Reverse
lever when the trigger switch is on.
The battery will discharge rapidly and
damage to the unit may occur.
6) When storing or carrying the tool, set
the Forward/Reverse lever to the center
position (switch lock).
7) Do not strain the tool by holding the
speed control trigger halfway (speed
control mode) so that the motor stops.
The protection circuit will activate and
may prevent speed control operation. If
this happens, release the speed control
trigger and squeeze again for normal
operation.
8) Be careful not to get dust inside the
chuck.
9) Do not touch the rotating parts to avoid
injury.
10)
Do not use the tool continuously for a long
period of time. Stop using the tool from time
to time to avoid temperature rise and heat
overload of the motor.
11) Do not drop the tool.

WARNING!
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and
cement and other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area,
and work with approved safety equipment,
such as dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
