SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
POWER TOOL USE 
AND CARE
1.  Do not force the power tool. Use the 
correct power tool for your application. 
The correct power tool will do the job 
better and more safely at the rate for 
which it was designed.
2.  Do not use the power tool if the switch 
does not turn it on and off. Any power 
tool that cannot be controlled with 
the switch is dangerous and must be 
repaired.
3.  Disconnect the plug from the power 
source and/or the battery pack from 
the power tool before making any 
adjustments, changing accessories, 
or storing power tools. Such preventive 
safety measures reduce the risk of 
starting the power tool accidentally.
4.  Store idle power tools out of the reach 
of children and do not allow persons 
unfamiliar with the power tool or these 
instructions to operate the power tool. 
Power tools are dangerous in the hands 
of untrained users.
5. Maintain power tools. Check for 
misalignment or binding of moving 
parts, breakage of parts and any other 
condition that may affect the power 
tool’s operation. If damaged, have 
the power tool repaired before use. 
Many accidents are caused by poorly 
maintained power tools.
6.  Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. 
Properly maintained cutting tools with 
sharp cutting edges are less likely to 
bind and are easier to control.
7.  Use the power tool, accessories, 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.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
1. Recharge only with the charger 
specied 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.
2.  Use power tools only with specically 
designated battery packs. Use of any 
other battery packs may create a risk of 
injury and fire.
3.  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.
4.  Under abusive conditions, liquid may 
be ejected from the battery; avoid 
contact. If contact accidentally occurs, 
ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, 
additionally seek medical help. Liquid 
ejected from the battery may cause 
irritation or burns.
SERVICE
1.  Have your power tool serviced by 
a qualied repair person using only 
identical replacement parts. This will 
ensure that the safety of the power tool 
is maintained.

an electric shock.
