GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY
WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety
warnings and all instructions. Failure
to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions
for future reference.
General Power Tool Safety
Warnings – Work Area Safety
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the liquids,
fumes or dust.
Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
General Power Tool Safety
Warnings – Electrical Safety
Power charger plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) chargers.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electrical
shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
Do not expose power tools, power
chargers or Power Cells to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering the
tool, chargers or Power Cells will
increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
power cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the charger. Keep the
power cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges, and moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power charger
outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power charger in a
damp location is unavoidable, use a
residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. An RCD is also
known as a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) or earth leakage
circuit breaker (ELCB). Use of an
RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
General Power Tool Safety
Warnings – Personal Safety
Stay alert, be aware of your
surroundings, watch what you are
doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating a power tool
may result in serious personal injury.

Do not place the Power Cell in aprons,
pockets, drawers, tool boxes, etc. with
metal objects, such as, but not limited
to, loose nails, screws, bolts, keys,
coins, staples, foil, etc. Such metal

or is cracked, crushed, deformed or
punctured. If a Power Cell has
sustained damaged, (as per above, or
otherwise) immediately isolate it in a
non-combustible, safe outside area,
remain a safe distance away but do not
leave it unattended. Such a damaged
Power Cell should be considered and
treated as a potentially thermally
unstable, flammable and hazardous
material. If the Power Cell ignites use
water spray, carbon dioxide, dry
chemical or foam extinguishers to
suppress. Avoid exposure to and
inhalation of hazardous fumes. Contact
hazardous materials authorities for
guidance as to appropriate handling
and prompt safe disposal of damaged
Power Cells. Make arrangements for
prompt safe disposal of a damaged
