This tool has many features for making its use more pleasant and enjoyable. Safety, performance, and dependability have been given top priority in the design of this product making it easy to maintain and operate.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, 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.

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 the mains-operated (corded) power tool

or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WORK AREA SAFETY

[] Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or 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 children and bystanders away while operat-

ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY [] Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

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 electric shock if your body

is earthed or grounded.

[] Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-

tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

[] Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or 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 an exten-

sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suit- able for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric 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 inattention while operating 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 is in

the off-position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in

power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

[] Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning

the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to

a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

[] Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance

at all times. This enables better control of the power

tool in unexpected situations.

[] Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-

elry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, 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 of these devices

can reduce dust-related hazards.

[] Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long

hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn into air vents.

[] Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable

footing on a solid surface enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE [] Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power

tool for your application. The correct power tool will

do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

[] Do not use the power tool if the switch does not

turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

[] Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or

the battery pack from the power tool before making

any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce

the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

[] Store idle power tools out of the reach of children

and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power

tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

[] Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the power tool's

operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

[]

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-

tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less

likely to bind and are easier to control.

[]

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.,

in accordance with these instructions and in the

manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could

result in a hazardous situation.

BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE [] Ensure the switch is in the off position before

inserting 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 is suitable for one type of battery 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 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 burns or a fire.

[]

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery, avoid contact. If contact acci- dentally occurs, flush with water, if liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

SERVICE

[] Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair

person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is main-

tained.

_k WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury, user must

read instruction manual.

[]

When servicing a power tool, use only identical

replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Main- tenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized

parts or failure to follow Maintenance instructions may

create a risk of shock or injury.

[] Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to

noise can cause hearing loss.

[] Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of

control can cause personal injury.

[] Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces

when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal

parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

[] Know your power tool. Read operator's manual

carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this power tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.

[] Always wear safety glasses with side shields.

Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses.

They are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will

reduce the risk of eye injury.

[] Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the

operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the

risk of serious personal injury.

[] 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.

[] Never use a battery that has been dropped or

received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or dam-

aged battery immediately.

[] Batteries 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 will 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 condi-

tions, 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, if liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek

immediate medical attention. Following this rule will

reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

[] Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and

use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these instruc- tions also to prevent misuse of the product and

possible injury.
