GENERAL SAFETY RULES

(FOR ALL BATTERY OPERATED TOOLS)

WARNING! Read and understand all instructions.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Work Area

1. Keep your work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.

2. Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

4. A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery.

A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.

5. Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.

Personal Safety

6. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A

moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

Standard battery cartridges BL1830

USA003-2

7. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

8. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in

the locked or off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your finger on

the switch or inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch on invites accidents.

9. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.

10. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

11. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

Tool Use and Care

12. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.

Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.

13. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

14. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

15. Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the

switch in the locked or off position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

16. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

17. 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 sparks, burns, or a fire.

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

19. Check for misalignment or binding of moving

parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained tools.

20. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when used on another tool.

SERVICE

21. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or

maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

22. When servicing a tool, use only identical

replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of

unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to cordless stapler safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury.

1. Hold power tools 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 make

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

2. Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses

with side shield, and a full face shield when needed.

3. Do not point the ejection port at anyone in the vicinity (especially his face). Keep hands and feet away from the ejection port area.

4. Always remove the battery cartridge before loading the staples, adjustment, inspection, maintenance or after operation is over.

5. Make sure no one is nearby before operation. Never attempt to drive staples from both the inside and outside of wall at the same time. Staples may rip through and/or fly off, presenting a grave danger.

6. Watch your footing and maintain your balance with the tool. Make sure there is no one below when working in high locations.

7. Check walls, ceilings, floors, roofing and the like carefully to avoid possible electrical shock, gas leakage, explosions, etc. caused by stapling into live wires, conduits or gas pipes.

8. Use only staples specified in this manual. The use of any other staples may cause malfunction of the tool.

9. Do not tamper with the tool or attempt to use it for other than driving staples.

10. Do not operate the tool without staples. It shortens the service life of the tool.

11. Stop driving operations immediately if you notice something wrong or out of the ordinary with the tool.

12. Never staple into any materials which may allow the staple to puncture and fly through as a projectile.

13. Never actuate the switch trigger and safety lever at the same time until you are prepared to staple workpieces. Allow the workpiece to depress the safety lever. Never defeat its purpose by securing the safety lever back or by depressing it by hand.

14. Never tamper with the safety lever. Check the safety lever frequently for proper operations.
