Safety

5

power tool repaired before use. 

Many accidents 

are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) 

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

 Properly 

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges 

are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) 

Use the power tool, accessories and 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

a) 

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.

b) 

Use power tools only with specifically 

designated battery packs.

 Use of any other 

battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

c) 

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 burns or a fire.

d) 

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be 

ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If 

contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If 

liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical 

help.

 Liquid ejected from the battery may cause 

irritation or burns.

6)  SERVICE

a) 

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.

BUFFER/POLISHER SAFETY RULES

 WARNING

The product is not intended for use by persons (including 

children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental 

capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, 

unless they have been given supervision or instruction 

concerning use of the product by a person responsible 

for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not 

play with the product.

 

Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, 

when performing an operation where the cutting 

tool may contact hidden wiring.

 Cutting tool 

contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts 

of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an 

electric shock.

 

Know your power tool. Read operator’s manual 

carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as 

well as the specific potential hazards related to this 

power tool.

 Following this rule will reduce the risk of 

electric shock, fire, or serious injury.

 

Always wear eye protection with side shields 

marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 when 

assembling parts, operating the tool, or performing 

maintenance.

 Following this rule will reduce the risk of 

serious personal 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 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 10°C but less than 38°C.

 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. 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.

 

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
