General Safety Rules

WARNING! Read all instructions

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury. The term “battery powered tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your line-operated (corded) battery powered tool or battery-operated (cordless) battery powered tool.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

1.Work area safety

a.Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b.Do not operate battery powered tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Battery powered tools create may sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c.Keep children and bystanders away while operating a battery powered tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2.Electrical safety

a.Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.

b.Do not expose battery powered tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a battery powered tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

3.Personal safety

a.Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a battery powered tool. Do not use a battery powered tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating battery powered tools may result in serious personal injury.

b.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c.Avoid accidental starting. Carrying battery powered tools with your finger on the switch invites accidents.

d.Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the battery powered tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the battery powered tool may result in personal injury.

e.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the battery powered tool in unexpected situations.

f.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g.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.

4.Battery powered tool use and care

a.Do not force the battery powered tool. Use the correct battery powered tool for your application. The correct battery powered tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b.Do not use the battery powered tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.

Any battery powered tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c.Disconnect the battery pack from the battery powered tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing battery powered tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the battery powered tool accidentally.

d.Store idle battery powered tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the battery powered tool or these instructions to operate the battery powered tool. Battery powered tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e.Maintain battery powered tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the battery powered tool’s operation. If damaged, have the battery powered tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained battery powered tools.

f.Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g.Use the battery powered tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of battery powered tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the battery powered tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5.Service

a.Have your battery powered tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the battery powered tool is maintained.
