2. REBAR CUTTER SAFETY
WARNINGS
1. KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM MOVING
PARTS
2. BE SURE TO KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM
THE TRIGGER SWITCH AND DETACH
THE BATTERY PACK WHEN REPLACING
THE BLADE, WHEN AB-NORMALITIES
OCCUR, AND WHEN THE EQUIPMENT IS
NOT BEING USED
Leaving the Battery pack installed in these sit-
uations may cause breakdowns or dam-age.
3. NEVER MODIFY THE TOOL
Modifying the tool will impair performance and
operating safety. Any modification may lead to
serious injury and void the tool war-ranty.
4. MAINTAIN THE TOOL IN GOOD OPER-
ATING CONDITION
(CHECK TIGHTNESS OF SCREWS BE-
FORE OPERATION)
To secure operating safety and ensure top
performance, keep the tool free of wear and
damage.
Under normal operation, the tool is de-
signed to produce vibration. Due to the vi-
bration, the screws can come loose, caus-
ing damage to the tool or serious injury.
Also keep the tool's hand grip dry and clean,
especially free of oil and grease.
5. LET THE TOOL WARM UP FOR SEV-
ERAL MINUTES BEFORE USE
In cold weather or when the tool has not been
used for a long period of time, the in-ternal lu-
brication in the tool might not be insufficient.
In such cases, let the tool warm up for several
minutes by operating it with no load. Lacking
sufficient internal lubrication, the tool might
not operate at full performance.
6. MAKE SURE THERE IS NO ONE BELOW
WHEN USING THE TOOL IN HIGH LO-
CATIONS
Failure to do so may lead to serious injury of
the person below.
7. HOLD THE TOOL FIRMLY WITH BOTH
HANDS
Failure to do so may lead to serious injury.
8. DO NOT LEAVE THE TOOL RUNNING
Operate the tool only when hand-held.
9. USE ONLY THE AUTHORIZED BATTERY
PACK
Use only MAX JPL925 battery pack. If the tool
is connected to a power supply other than the
authorized pack, such as a re-chargeable
battery, a dry cell, or a storage battery for use
in automobiles, the tool may be damaged,
break down, overheat, or even catch on fire.
Do not connect this tool to any power supply
except the MAX JPL925 bat-tery pack.
10. TO ENSURE MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE,
FULLY CHARGE THE BATTERY BEFORE
USE
A new battery pack or one not used for ex-
tended periods may have self-discharged
and thus may need recharging to restore it to
a fully charged condition. Before operating
the tool, make sure to charge the Battery
pack with the designated MAX Battery
charger JC928.
11. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENTILATION
HOLE OF THE TOOL. DO NOT PUT ANY-
THING INTO THE VENTILATION HOLE.
The tool may heat up, emit smoke or break
down.
It is very dangerous because foreign matter
may be thrown from the tool.
12. DO NOT CONTINUOUSLY USE OF THE
TOOL FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME.
The motor temperature and oil temperature
will rise to the point that the tool cannot pro-
vide sufficient performance.
13. DO NOT DROP THE TOOL.
This may cause damage or malfunction.
When working in high locations, use due
caution for the operating environment or sur-
rounding persons.
14. USE ONLY THE SPECIFIED BLADES AND
ACCESSORIES.
Unspecified blades and accessories may not
only cause equipment trouble but also injury
or accident.
15. USE ONLY THE SPECIFIED HYDRAULIC
OIL.
Unspecified oil may cause equipment trou-
ble and inadequate power, and adversely af-
fect the tool.
