3. GENERAL POWER TOOL
SAFETY WARNINGS
1. WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• 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.
• Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock.
• 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.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
•
When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected
supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk
of electric shock.
3. PERSONAL SAFETY
•
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment
of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or energising power
tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
• 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.
• If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
• Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND ALL
INSTRUCTIONS.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury. Save all warnings and
instructions for future reference. The term
"power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WARNING
8
• Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.

11.BATTERY INSTRUCTIONS
About the Battery Level Indicator
(1) To check the battery level (excluding while charging or while operating the charging
tool), press the Battery level check button.
(2) The Battery level gauge is on according to the battery level.
Service Life of the Battery pack
If any condition described below is observed, the Battery pack is at the end of its service life. Replace it
with a new one.
Although the Battery pack has been properly charged (fully charged), a great drop in tying time has been
noticed.
• Do not charge the Battery pack when this happens. If the motor’s rotational speed slows down,
the power of the Battery pack is considered to be nearly depleted. Using the tool more will
cause it to overdischarge, resulting in a shortened service life of the Battery pack and also in
functional trouble of the tool’s main body.
• Do not use a Battery pack when its service life is finished.
This will cause functional trouble in the tool’s main body. Also charging a Battery pack that is
out of service life will lead to functional trouble in the Charger.
Recycling a Li-ion Battery
The MAX battery pack uses a Li-ion battery, it may be illegal to dispose of this Battery into the municipal
waste system. Check with your local solid waste officials for details in your area for recycling options or
proper disposal.
