_1_WARNING: Read and understand all instruc-

tions. Failure to fellow all instructionslisted below,

may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious

personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WORK AREA

• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered

benches and dark areas invite accidents.

• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-

spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to

lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with

the specified charger for the battery. A charger that

may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.

• Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries

may create a risk of fire.

• Use battery only with charger listed.

• 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 cords may create a fire.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inatten- tionwhile operating power tools may result in serious

personal injury.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing,

and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,

jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the

locked or off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch on invites

accidents.

• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a

rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance

at all times. Proper footing and balance enable better controlof the tool in unexpected situations.

• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

TOOL USE AND CARE

• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece 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 toot will do the job better and safer at the rate for which itis designed.

• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. A toot that cannot be controlled with the switch is danger-

ous and must be repaired.

• Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the

switch in the locked or off position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing

the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the

risk of starting the toot accidentally.

• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other

untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained 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.

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire.

• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp

and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting

edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injurywhen

used on another tool.

• Keep the tool and its handle dry, clean and free

from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when

cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum- based products, or any strong solvents to clean your tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.

SERVICE • When servicing a tool, use only identical replace-

• Tool service must be performed only by qualified ment parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or

by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury, risk of shock or injury.

• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery tool or when changing accesso- ries. 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.

• 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, flush with water immediately.

• Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet location. Following this rule wilt reduce 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, bat-

tery 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 atten-

tion. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious

personal injury.

a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the

same number, size and shape as those of plug on charger.

b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good

electrical condition; and

c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere

,i_ WARNING:

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grind- ing, drilling, and other construction activities contains

chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these

chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
