5 GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow all 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.

5.1 Work area

§ Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and 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.

5.2 Electrical safety

Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

§ 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.

5.3 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 safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used whenever conditions require will reduce personal injuries.

§ Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in 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 jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

POWX019 EN

§ If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.

5.4 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.

§ 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 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 sticking 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 stick and are easier to control.

§ Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could lead to a hazardous situation.

5.5 Service

§ Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

6 OPERATION

Before attempting to use any tool familiarize yourself with all operating features and safety requirements.

Warning: Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you careless. Remember that a careless traction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.

6.1 Charging your cordless impact wrench

The battery pack for t his tool has been shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge it completely prior to use. Note: Batteries will not reach full charge the first time they are charged. Allow several cycles (Operation followed by recharging) for them to fully charge.

6.1.1 Charging

Your battery can be charged in 1 hour charge. Be sure to read all safety instructions before using your charger. This product is not user serviceable. There are no user serviceable parts inside the charger. Servicing at an authorized service-centre is required to avoid damage to static sensitive internal components.

§ Read all of the instructions in the battery charger section to this manual before attempting to charge the battery pack for your tool. Always use correct battery pack (pack supplied with tool or replacement pack exactly like it.). Never install any other battery pack, it will ruin your tool and may create hazardous condition.

Page 6

POWX019 EN

6.1.2 Important charging notes:

Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air temperature is between 10-40°C. Do not charge the battery pack in an air temperature below 10° C or above 40° C . This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

§ The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and does not indicate a problem.

§ The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily done previously. Do not continue to use under these conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.

§ Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply, the exposed charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but no limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before attempting to clean.

§ Do not immerse charger in water or any other liquid.

Warning: don't allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may result. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.

Caution: never attempt to open trie battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a servicecentre for recycling.

6.1.3 Charge process

6.3 Batteries

Your wrench's battery pack is equipped with Nickel-Cadmium rechargeable batteries. Length of service from each charging will depend on the type of work you are doing. The batteries in this tool have been designed to provide maximum trouble-free life. However, like all batteries, they will eventually wear out. Do not disassemble the battery pack and attempt to replace the batteries. Handling of these batteries, especially when wearing rings and jewelry could result in a serious burn. To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following:

§ Store and charge your batteries in a cool area. Temperatures above normal room temperature will shorten battery life.

§ Never store batteries in a discharged condition. Wait for battery to cool and charge immediately.

§ All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher temperature, the quicker they lose their charge. If you store your tool for long periods of time without using recharge the batteries every month or two This practice will prolong battery life.

Caution: Once the batteries become fully charged, we recommend that you unplug the charger from power supply and remove from battery pack.
