GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Carefully read these operating instructions thoroughly before unpacking and operating this Rechargeable
Grease Gun.
•
A battery operated Rechargeable Grease Gun with a separate battery pack must be recharged only with
the specified battery charger. A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of
fire when used with another battery. Use this battery operated tool only with the specifically designed
battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire. Batteries are shipped in an uncharged
state. Charge batteries for 1 hour before first use.
•
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. The Rechargeable Grease Gun can create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. Keep
bystanders, children and visitors away during operation. Distractions can cause you to make mistakes.
•
Do not use the battery charger in damp or wet locations.
•
Always use safety glasses and gloves for protection during operation. The Rechargeable Grease Gun can
generate up to 8000 psi. Grease injection injuries are a very serious injury. Avoid accidental starting. Be
sure the switch is not depressed when inserting battery pack. Do not bend the hose so that it becomes
kinked.
•
Do not continue to hold down trigger if the grease gun is stalled. This could damage the motor or cause
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 battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire. Use only accessories that are
recommended for use with the Rechargeable Grease Gun. This tool is a fully rated portable power
lubrication product. Only accessories that are capable or handling 8000 psi should be used.
•
Service must be performed only by qualified service personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury. When servicing this Rechargeable Grease Gun, use
only same replacement parts. Use of unauthorized parts may create risk of injury and will void the
warranty.
•
Visually inspect for damaged, loosen or missing parts. If equipment is worn or damaged, remove from
service. Contact sales for damage assessment or repair.
