Battery tool use and care
a.
prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to battery pack, picking up or carrying the
power tool. Carrying the power tool with your
finger on the switch or energizing power tool
that have the switch on invites accidents.
b.
Disconnect the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power
tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
c.
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.
d.
use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
e.
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.
f.
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.
g.
Do not use a battery pack or power tool that
is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
h.
Do not expose a battery pack or power
tool to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above
140°F may cause explosion.
i.
Follow all charging instructions and do
not charge the battery pack or power tool
outside of the temperature range specified
in the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside of the specified range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
j.
Have servicing performed by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the product is maintained.
k.
Do not modify or attempt to repair the power
tool or the battery pack except as indicated
in the instructions for use and care.
l.
The battery Charger gets hot during
use. The Charger’s heat can build up
to unsafe levels and create a fire
hazard if it does not receive adequate
ventilation, due to an electrical fault, or if it is
used in a hot environment. Do not place the
Charger on a flammable surface. Do not obstruct
any vents on the Charger.
especially avoid
placing the charger on carpets and rugs; they
are not only flammable, but they also obstruct
vents under the charger.
Place the Charger on
a stable, solid, nonflammable surface (such as a
stable metal workbench or concrete floor) at least
1 foot away from all flammable objects, such as
drapes or walls. Keep a fire extinguisher and a
smoke detector in the area. Frequently monitor
the Charger and Battery Pack while charging.

Safety instructions for all operations
a.
use the auxiliary handle(s). Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
b.
Brace the tool properly before use. This
tool produces a high output torque and without
properly bracing the tool during operation, loss
of control may occur resulting in personal injury.
c.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory or fasteners
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live”
and could give the operator an electric shock.
