operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired be-
fore use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
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.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
Recharge only with the charger specified by the man-
ufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of battery
pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery
pack.
Use power tools 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, additionally seek
medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion, or risk of
injury.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive
temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 265° F
may cause explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
SERVICE
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.
Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery
packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or
authorized service providers.
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
MULTI-TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring.
Cutting accessory contacting
a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support
the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by
hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead
to loss of control.
Know your power tool. Read operator’s manual care-
fully. 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 op-
eration is dusty.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during ex-
tended 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 pres-
ence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris
and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.
