KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don't use power tools in damp
or wet locations. Keep work area well
lit.
Don't expose power tools to rain.
Don't use tool in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY.
All
visitors should be kept away from work area.
Don't let visitors contact tool or extension cord.
STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use,
tools
should be stored in dry, and high
or locked-up place
-
out of reach of children.
DON'T FORCE TOOL.
It
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it
was intended.
USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or attachment to do the
job
of
a
heavy-duty tool. Don't use tool for purpose not intended.
DRESS PROPERLY. Don't wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught
in
moving parts. Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear are recommended
when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty.
DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank
it
to disconnect from
receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than using
your hand and
it
frees both hands to operate tool.
DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and
safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing acces-
sories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace
if
damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use, before servicing, and when chang-
ing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters.
14.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
Form habit of checking to
see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning
it
on.
15.
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING.
Don‘t carry plugged-in tool
with
finger
on switch. Be sure switch is
OFF
when plugging
in.
16.
OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS.
When tool is used outdoors, use only
extension cords intended for use outdoors and
so
marked.
17.
STAY ALERT.
Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Don’t operate
tool when you are tired.
18.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS.
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other
part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that
it
will
operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any
other conditions that may affect its operation.
A
guard or other part that
is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized serv-
ice center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere
in
this instruction manual.
Have defective switches replaced by authorized service center. Don’t use
tool if switch does not turn
it
on and off.
19.
GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Prevent body contact
with
grounded
surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
20.
REPLACEMENT PARTS.
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
VOLTAGE WARNING:
Before connecting the tool to a power source (receptacle,
outlet, etc.) be sure the voltage supplied is the same as that specified on the
nameplate of the tool.
A
power source with voltage greater than that specified
for the tool can result
in
SERIOUS INJURY
to the user - as well as damage to
the tool.
If
in
doubt,
DO NOT PLUG
IN
THE TOOL.
Using a power source with
voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.

Installing or removing battery cartridge
0Always switch off the tool before insertion or removal of the battery cartridge.
To remove the battery cartridge, pull out
the
set
plate on the tool and grasp both
sides of the cartridge while withdrawing
it
from the barrel.
0
To insert the battery cartridge, align the
tongue
on
the

it
into
place. Snap the
set
plate back into place.
Be sure to close the
set
plate fully before
using the tool.
0
Do
not use force when inserting the battery cartridge.
If the cartridge does not slide
in
easily,
it
is
not being inserted correctly.
Charging
Plug the fast charger into your power
source. Insert the battery cartridge
so
that
the plus and minus terminals on the battery cartridge are on the same sides
as
their
respective markings on the fast charger. In-
sert the cartridge fully into the port
so
that
it
rests on the charger port floor.
The charging light will come on and charging will begin. If the charging light does not
come on, press the reset button. If the
83
charging light goes out within
10
seconds even after pressing the reset button a couple of
times, the battery cartridge
is
dead. (CAUTION
:
Wait
for more than 5 seconds after the
charging light goes out to press the reset button again.) Replace
it
with a new one. When
the ‘charging light goes out after about one hour,
you
may remove the fully charged
battery cartridge. After charging, unplug the charger from the power source.
CAUTION
:
0Your new battery cartridge
is
not charged. You will need to charge
it
before use.
0
If
you try to charge a cartridge from a just-operated tool, sometimes the charging light
will not come on. If this occurs,
let
the cartridge cool off for a while. Then re-insert
it
and try to charge
it
once more.
0
When
you
charge a new battery cartridge or a battery cartridge which has not been used
for
a
long period,
it
may not accept a full charge. This
is
a
normal condition and does
not indicate
a
problem. You can recharge the battery cartridge fully after discharging
it
almost completely a couple
of
times.
0
If you wish to charge two battery cartridges, allow
15
minutes between chargings on the
fast charger.
