GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL APPLIANCES

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Read and understand all instructions before operating product. Failure to

follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

• AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use appliances in damp or wet locations. Don’t use appliances in the rain.

• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept at a distance from work area.

• STORE IDLE APPLIANCES INDOORS. When not in use, appliances should be stored indoors in dry, and high or locked-up place – out of reach of children.

• USE RIGHT APPLIANCE. Do not use the appliance for any job except that for which it is intended.

• DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and substantial, non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

• USE SAFETY GLASSES AND OTHER SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Use safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields, complying with applicable safety standards and, when needed, a face shield. Also use face or dust mask if operation is dusty. This applies to all persons in the work area. Also use a hard hat, hearing protection, gloves, safety shoes and dust collection systems when specified or required. Safety glasses or the like are available at extra cost at your local dealer or Black & Decker Service Center.

• DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry appliance by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

• DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

• DISCONNECT APPLIANCES. Disconnect the appliance from the power supply when not in use, before servicing, and when changing accessories such as blades and the like.

• AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don’t carry plugged-in appliance with finger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.

• GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuits or outlets to be used. Receptacles are available having built in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.

• USE OF ACCESSORIES AND ATTACHMENTS. The use of any accessory or attachment not recommended for use with this appliance could be hazardous. Note: Refer to the accessory section of this manual for further details.

• STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate tool when you are tired.

• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by authorized service center. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.

• DO NOT OPERATE portable electric tools near flammable liquids or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Certain components in these tools normally spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.

• EXTENSION CORDS. 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. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

• OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.

• Follow these instructions and those published by the manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use with this unit. Review cautionary markings on these products.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: This product or its power cord contains lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defect or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD: Do not operate unit with damaged cord or plug; or if the unit has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. Do not disassemble the unit; take it to a qualified service technician when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire, and will void warranty.

WARNING: Keep the POWER TO GO®out of the reach of children and pets. The inverter generates the same potentially lethal AC power as a normal household wall outlet. Treat the outlet with respect!

WARNING: Use caution when inserting an AC plug into the two-prong AC outlet. The prongs of an AC plug can become bent from misuse. If an AC plug is improperly inserted into the AC outlet, a bent prong can slip outside the inverter and become a shock hazard.

WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD: This equipment employs components that tend to produce arcs or sparks. DO NOT use in compartments containing batteries or flammable materials.
