SERVICE

 

Tool  service  must  be  performed  only  by  qualified 
repair personnel. 
Service or maintenance performed by 
unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

 

When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement 
parts. Follow 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.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

 

Wear  ear  protectors  with  impact  drills.  Exposure  to 
noise can cause hearing loss.

 

Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of 
control can cause personal injury.

 

Hold  tool  by  insulated  gripping  surfaces  when 
performing an operation where the cutting tool may 
contact hidden wiring. 
Contact with a “live” wire will also 
make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock 
the operator.

 

Know  your  power  tool.  Read  operator’s  manual 
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well 
as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. 
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, 
fire, or serious injury.

 

Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Everyday 
glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are NOT 
safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of 
eye injury.

 

Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the 
operation is dusty. 
Following this rule will reduce the risk 
of serious personal injury.

 

Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during 
extended periods of operation.
 Following this rule will 
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

 

Battery  tools  do  not  have  to  be  plugged  into  an 
electrical  outlet;  therefore,  they  are  always  in 
operating  condition.  Be  aware  of  possible  hazards 
when not using your battery tool or when changing 
accessories. 
Following this rule will reduce the risk of 
electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.

 

Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire 
or heat. 
This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly 
injury.

  

Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not 
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped 
or received a sharp blow. 
A damaged battery is subject 
to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged 
battery immediately.

 

Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the 
presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. 
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use 
any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An 
exploded  battery  can  propel  debris  and  chemicals.  If 
exposed, flush with water immediately.

 

Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet location. 
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.

 

For best results, your battery tool should be charged 
in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F 
but less than 100°F. 
To reduce the risk of serious personal 
injury, do not store outside or in vehicles.

 

Under  extreme  usage  or  temperature  conditions, 
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact 
with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water, 
then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid 
gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for 
at  least  10  minutes,  then  seek  immediate  medical 
attention. 
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious 
personal injury.

 

If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced 
only  by  the  manufacturer  or  by  an  authorized  service 
center to avoid risk.

  

Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and 
use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you 
loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also 
to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.
