Safety Rules for the Corded Power Supply

DANGER: High voltage present inside the unit. Do not probe with conductive
objects. Danger of electric shock or electrocution.



DANGER: If the corded power supply case is cracked or damaged, do not plug
into AC outlet or insert into tool. Return the unit to an authorized



center. Danger of electric shock or electrocution.

DANGER: The corded power supply and power tool may produce a small
magnetic field. Users with cardiac pacemakers should keep the corded power



supply and power tool at least 15cm away from implanted device. Users
should immediately stop using this product, remove power, and call physician
if any physical effects are felt.

WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current device with a residual current

rating of 30mA or less.



WARNING: Review and follow all instructions and warnings contained within
the tool's instruction manual connected with the corded power supply



manual. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.

• Do not use under wet conditions or in presence of flammable liquids or gases.

• Do not expose corded power supply to rain or snow.

• Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by
electric shock, or injury to persons.

• This corded power supply is not intended for any uses other than powering D
FLEXVOLT™ tools. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.

• Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the corded power
supply. This will reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.

• Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or

otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely necessary. Use of improper
extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.

• When operating the corded power supply outdoors, always provide a dry location
and use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.

• Do not force the corded power supply. Use the correct power tool for your application.

• 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.
