Work Area
J Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benchesand dark areas inviteaccidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Powertoolscreatesparks
whichmay ignitethe dust orfumes.
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while
operating e power tool. Distractionscancause you
tolose control.
Electrical Safety
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry
the charger, Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cordsmay createa fire.
• A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a
separate battery pack must be recharged only with
the specified charger for the battery.Achargerthat
maybe suitablefor one type ofbatterymay create a
riskoffire when usedwith anotherbattery.Usebattery
only with chargerlisted.

• Use battery operated tool only with specifically
designated battery pack. Useof any otherbatteries
may create a riskoffire. Use onlywithbatterypack
listed.
Personal Safety
• Stay alert, watch what you ere doing end use

jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing,
end gloves away from moving pads. Looseclothes,
jewelry,or longhaircan be caughtin movingparts.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch Is In the
locked or off position before inserting battery
pack. Carryingtoolswith yourfinger onthe switchor
insertingthe batterypackintoa toolwiththe switchon,
invitesaccidents.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turn-

Tool Use and Care
• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and
support the workplace to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body is unstable and
may lead to loss of control
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your
application. The correct tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it is designed.
• Do not use tool If switch does not turn It on or off.
A tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch
In the locked or off position before maldng any i_lusb
merits, changing acceeeoriss, or stodng the tceL Such
preventive safety measures reduce riskof startingthe tool
acddentaily.
• Store idle tools out of reach of children end other
untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands
of unVained users.
• 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.
Shodthg the battery terminals together may cause
sparks, burns, or a fire.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp
and clean. Properlymaintained tools,withsharp
cuttingedges are lesslikelyto bindand are easierto
control.
• Check for mleellgnment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts,and any other condition that may
affect thetool's operation. Ifdamaged, havethe tool
serviced before using. Manyaccidents are causedby
poodymaintained tools.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by
the manufacturer for your model. Accessoriesthat
may be sult=_blefor one too[,may create a riskofinjury
when usedon anothertool.
Servloe
• Tool service must be performed only by qua,fled
repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed
by unqualifiedpersonnelcould resultina risk ofinjury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical replace-
ment parts. Follow instructions tn the Maintenance
section of this manual. Usaof unauthorizedpartsor
failuretofollowMaintenancoInstructionsmay create a
riskof shockorinjury.
Hold tool by Insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the opera,or.
Additional Rules For Safe Operation
• Know your power fool. Read operator's manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specific putentlal hazards related to
this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
• Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at leaSt 16 is
recommended for an extension cord 100 feet or less
in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet Is not recom-
mended, If In doubt, use the next heavier gage. The
smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord° An
undersized cord will cause a drop in lii_evoltage result-
ing in loss of power and overheating.
Important Rules for Battery Tools
• 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 chang-
Ing accessories. FoJ]owing this rule will reduce the
risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal iniury.
• De nat place battery tools or their batteries near
fire or heat. Thiswill reducethe riskofexplosionand
possibleinjury.
A WARNING: Batteries vent hydrogen gas alld 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.
Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet
location. Following this rule will reducs the risk of
electric shock.
For best results, your battery tool should be
charged in a location where the temperature is
more than 50°F but less than 100°F. Do not store
outside or in vehicles.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes In
contact with your skin, wash Immediately with
soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice
or vinegar, If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them
with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek
immediate medical attention. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
