SAFETY GUIDELINES
Work area safety
• Keep your work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in an explosive
environment, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks that may
ignite the dust or fumes.
Electrical safety
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all
connections dry and off the ground.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Use and care of battery-operated tools
• Recharge only using 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.
• Only use power tools with specifically designated
battery packs. The use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
• When a 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 accidentally occurs, flush
with water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek additional medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

• Know your power tool. Read the Instruction Manual
carefully. Learn the applications and limitations, as well as the
specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule
will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or serious injury.
• Battery-operated 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-operated tool or when changing
accessories. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock, fire or serious personal injury.
• Do not place battery-operated tools or their batteries
near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and
possibly injury.
• Do not crush, drop or damage the battery pack. Do not use a
battery pack or charger that has been dropped or that has received
a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly
dispose of a dropped or damaged battery pack immediately.
• Batteries vent hydrogen gas and 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 an open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris
and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.
• Do not charge a battery-operated tool in a damp or wet
location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.
• For best results, your battery-operated tool should be
charged in a location where the temperature is higher
than 0°C (32°F) but lower than 40°C (104°F). Do not
store outside or in a vehicle.
