GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY RULES

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to

noise can cause hearing loss.

Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when

performing an operation where the cutting tool may

contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a

“live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool

“live” and shock the operator.

Know your power tool. Read operator’s manual

carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well

as the specific potential hazards related to this 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. Failure to do so could

result in objects being thrown into your eyes, resulting in

possible serious injury.

Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the

operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk

of serious personal injury.

Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during

extended 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 presence of open flame. An exploded battery can

propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water

immediately.

Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet location.

Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.

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.

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.

BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

Ensure the switch is in the off position before insert-

ing battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into power

tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

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.

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.

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.

When servicing a power tool, use only identical

replacement parts. Follow instructions in the

Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized

parts or failure to follow Maintenance instructions may

create a risk of shock or injury.
