IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: When using electric toots,

basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

16) Do not charge battery pack when the temperature is BELOW 32“F (0‘C) or ABOVE 104T {40°C). This is very important.

17) Do not incinerate the battery pack. It can explode in a fire.

18) Avoid dangerous environment. Do not use charger in damp or wet locations.

19) The charger is designed to operate on standard household electrical power only. Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage!

20) Do not abuse cord. Never carry charger by cord or yank it to disconnect from outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges.

21) Charge the battery pack in a well ventilated place, do not cover the charger and battery pack with a cloth, etc., while charging.

22) Use of an attachment not recommended

may result in a risk of fire, electric shock,

or injury to persons.

23) Do not short the battery pack, A battery

short can cause a large current flow,

over heating and burns.

24) NOTE: If the supply cord of this

appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced by a repair shop appointed by

the manufacturer, because special

purpose tools are required.

3) If the bit becomes jammed, immediately turn the main switch off to prevent an overload which can damage the battery pack or motor. Use reverse motion to loosen jammed bits.

4) Do not operate the reversing lever when the main switch is on. The battery will discharge rapidly and damage to the unit may occur.

5) During charging, the charger may become slightly warm. This is normal. Do not charge the battery for a long period.

6) Use only a dry, soft cloth for wiping the unit. Do not use a damp cloth, thinner, benzine, or other volatile solvents for cleaning.

position.

8) Do not strain the tool by holding the speed

control trigger halfway (speed control mode) so that the motor stops.

9) Do not operate the speed selector switch (LOW-HIGH) while pulling on the speed

control trigger. This can cause the rechargeable battery to wear quickly or damage the internal mechanism of the motor.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
