WARNING!
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “product” in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) product or battery-operated (cordless)
product.
WORK AREA SAFETY

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate products in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases,
or dust.
Products create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while operating
a product.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY

A battery operated product with integral batteries or
a separate battery 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.

Use this product only with batteries and chargers listed
in tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation
supplement 987000-432
.

Do not expose products to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a product will increase the risk of electric
shock.

Disconnect the battery when not in use.
PERSONAL SAFETY

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
Proper footing and balance enable better
control of the product in unexpected situations.

Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the
product in unexpected situations.

Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
TRANSFER PUMP USE AND CARE

CAUTION: The pump has been evaluated for use with
water only. Do not use with acids, alkalines, solvents,
flammable material, gasoline or petroleum products,
bleaches, or industrial grade solutions
. These products
can cause physical injuries to the operator and irreversible
damage to the pump.

Do not use product if switch does not turn it on or
off.
A product that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect battery pack or power supply from
product before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the product.
Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the product
accidentally.

Release the pressure and drain water from the pump
before servicing or before putting in storage.

Keep the product and its handle dry, clean and free
from oil and grease.
Always use a clean cloth when clean-
ing. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based
products, or any strong solvents to clean your product.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control
and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.

Clean only with dry cloth.

Do not operate near any heat sources such as radiators,
heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
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 products only with specifically designated battery
packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a risk
of injury and fire.

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.

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, ad-
ditionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.

Use products only with specifically designated battery
packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a risk
of injury and fire.

Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the
battery pack (as applicable) except as indicated in the
instructions for use and care.
