READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USE
WORK AREA SAFETY
•Do not use in the presence of explosive dust, liquids or vapors. Power tools have motors and other
parts
that can produce
sparks
during
normal use.
Do not use within 30 feet of areas where explosive
materials
may
be
present
(such
as
gasoline
pumps
and places where liquids like paint thinners, cleaners,
solvents, etc. are stored).
•
Do not use where oxygen or anesthetics are used.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention
is necessary when used by or near children.
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.
•Use extra care when using on stairs. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. Keep
work
area
clean
and
well
lit. This
en
-
ables
better control
of the tool in unexpected situations.
•
Avoid dangerous environmental conditions. To
reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose
to rain. Store tool indoors.
• Inspect the area before using the power tool.
Remove all debris and hard objects such as rocks,
glass, wire, etc. that can ricochet, be thrown, or
otherwise cause injury or damage during operation.
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 inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
•Always wear eye protection. Use of this tool can
result in foreign objects being blown into eyes,
which can result in eye damage.
•Wear a face or dust mask when working in dust
situations. Dust particles can harm your lungs.
• Use personal protective equipment. Protective
equipment such as hearing protection, protective
clothing, and non-skid safety shoes used for ap-
propriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
• Do not point tool at self or bystanders. Keep
bystanders 15 m (50') away during use. Objects
may be thrown or ricochet in all directions.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
• Use the power tool, accessories, 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.
• 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 nger on
the switch or energising power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
• 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.
•
Use only as described in this manual. Use only
manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
• Do not point tool at anything that is burning or
smoking such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
•To reduce the risk of health hazards from vapors
or dust, do not use tool near tool toxic, carci
-
nogenic or other hazardous materials such as
asbestos, arsenic, barium, beryllium, lead, pesticides
or other health endangering materials.
•
WARNING
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples
of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to
lter out microscopic particles.
• Do not use 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.
•Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position before inserting battery pack.
Inserting battery packs in tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
• Do not put hands or objects into openings. Do not
use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint,
hair, and anything else that may reduce air ow.
• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
• Maintain power tools and accessories. 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.

BATTERY PACK USE AND CARE
• Remove the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories, storing, or any time the power tool is
not in use. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
•Turn off power tool before removing battery pack.
• Do not handle battery pack, tool, or charger
(including charger plug and terminals) with wet
hands.
•Before using the battery pack or charger read the
operator’s manuals, and any labels on the battery
pack, charger and tool.
•Recharge only with the charger specied by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of re when used
with another battery pack.
• Use tool only with specically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and re.
• 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 burns or a re.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns. It may be toxic if swallowed.
• Do not use damaged battery pack or tool. If battery
pack or appliance are not working as they should, have
been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into
water, return them to a service centre.
• Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re or
excessive temperature. Exposure to re or tem-
perature above 130°C (265°F) may cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specied in the instructions. Charging im-
properly or at temperatures outside the specied range
may damage the battery and increase the risk of re.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualied
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
• Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorised service providers.
