BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
• Make sure that the switch is in the OFF position before inserting the
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 issuitable for one type of batter 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,
such as 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, seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
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 the battery pack. Do notusea battery pack
orchargerthat hasbeen dropped or received a sharpblow.
A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped
or damaged battery immediately.
Batteries vent hydrogen gas and 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 to
such debris or chemicals, immediately flush the exposed area with water.
Do not charge a battery tool in a damp or wet location. Following this rule
will reduce the risk of electric shock.
• 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.
10004 Manual_Revised._08-0813 Page 8 10004 ManuaLRevised_08-0813 Page 9

workpiece when the saw is cutting.
• Do not touch the blade or the workpiece immediately after operation;
they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
• Do not cut an oversized workpiece.
• Check for the proper clearance under the workpiece before cutting, so
that the blade will not strike the workbench or material under the workpiece.
• Make sure that the blade is not contacting the workpiece before the
switch is turned on,
• Secure the martial before cutting. Never hold a workpiece in your hand
. or maysexor
• Always use a rip fence or straightedge guide when ripping; this improves
the accuracy of the cut and reduces the chance of the blade binding.
• Never cut more than one piece at a time. Do not stack more than one
workpiece on the worktable at a time.
• Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could
cause your hand to move into the blade.
• Never reach into the cutting path of the blade.
• Always use blades that have the correct size and shape. Blades that do
not match the mounting hardware of
• For best results, your battery tool should be charged in a location where the

LOW-BATTERY CAPACITY INDICATOR
If the LED worklight begins to rapidly and continuously flash when the trigger
switch on the saw is depressed, the battery pack power has run out, and the
battery pack should be recharged.
Unlike other battery pack types, Lithium-Ion battery packs deliver fade-free
power for their entire run time. The tool will not experience a slow, gradual loss
of power as you work. To signal that the battery pack isat the end of its run time
and needs to be charged, the power to the tool will drop quickly.
NOTE: The LED may also flash due to an overload or high temperature (see
BAI-rERY PROTECTION).
BATTERY PROTECTION
The battery circuitry protects the battery pack from extreme temperature, over-
discharge, and over-charge. To protect the battery from damage and prolong its
life, the battery pack circuitry willturn off the battery pack if it becomes overloaded
or ifthe temperature becomes too high during use. This may happen in extremely
high torque, binding, and stalling situations. This intelligent system will shut down
your battery pack if itsoperating temperature exceeds 176°F (800(3)and will begin
normal operation when it returns to 32°F (0°C) - 122°F (50°C).
The LED light will begin flash slowly ifthe battery circuitry detects a
momentary overload.
NOTE: The battery can automatically reset. If the LED continues to flash rapidly,
it is indicating that the charge is substantially diminished. Place the battery into
