_ WARNING] Read all instructions. Failure to follow
all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term "power
tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-oper-
ated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered ordark
areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in.explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Powertools create sparks
whichmay ignitethe dustor fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operat-
ing a power tool. Distractionscan causeyou to lose
control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use anyadapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets willreduce
risk of electric shock.
• Avoidbody contactwithearthed or groundedsurfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There isan increasedrisk of electric shock ifyour body
is earthed or grounded.
• Donot expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a powertool will increasethe risk
of electricshock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pullingor unplugging the power tool, Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use anexten-
sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Useofa cord suit-
able for outdooruse reduces the risk ofelectric shock.
• Use battery only with charger listed.

PERSONAL SAFETY"
• Stay alert, 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 inattentionwhileoperating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appro-
priate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch isin
the off-position before plugging in. Carryingpower
tools withyour finger onthe switch or pluggingin
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrenchor a key leftattached to
a rotatingpart of thepowertool may resultin personal
injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enablesbetter controlof the power
toolin unexpectedsituations.

elry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts, Looseclothes,jewe}ry,or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used, Use ofthesedevices
can reduce dust-related hazards.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn

be stepped on, tripped over, come in contact
with sharp edges or moving parts or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress. This will reducethe
risk of accidental falls, which could cause injury,and
damage to the cord,which could result in electric
shock.
• Keep cord and charger from heat to prevent
damage to housing or internal parts.
• Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products,
etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They contain
chemicalsthat can damage, weaken, ordestroy plastic.
• An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord
could resultir_a risk offire and electric shock. If
extension cord must be used, make sure:
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
rating of charger as specified below:
Cord Length (Feet) 25' 50' 100'
Cord Size (AWG) 16 16 16
NOTE=AWG = American Wire Gauge
• Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or
plug, which could cause shorting and electric shock. If
damaged, have the charger replaced by an authorized

,_ WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects orotherreproductive harm.Some examples ofthese
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.
