SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Work Area Safety
• Keep your work area clean and well lit� Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate equipment in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust� Equipment can create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating equipment� Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfac­es such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators�
There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose equipment to rain or wet conditions�
Water entering equipment will increase the risk of elec­trical shock.
• Do not abuse the cord� Never use the cord for carry- ing, pulling, or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• If operating equipment in a damp location is unavoid­able, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) pro­tected supply� Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock.
• Keep all electrical connections dry and off the ground� Do not touch equipment or plugs with wet hands
to reduce the risk of electrical shock.
Personal Safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use com­mon sense when operating equipment� Do not use
equipment while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating equipment may result in serious person­al injury.
• Use personal protective equipment� Always wear eye protection. The appropriate use of protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat, and hearing protection will reduce personal injuries.
• Do not overreach� Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the equipment in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly� Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving
English – 3
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, and long hair can be caught in moving parts.
Equipment Use and Care
• Do not force equipment� Use the correct equipment for your application. The correct equipment will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may eject from bat­tery; avoid contact� If contact occurs, flush with water.
If liquid contacts eyes, seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not cover charger while in use� Proper ventilation is required for correct operation. Covering charger in use could result in fire.
• Do not use equipment if the Power Key does not turn it on and off� Any equipment that cannot be controlled
with the power switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the equipment before making adjustments, changing accessories, or storing� Pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk of injury.
• Store idle equipment out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the equip­ment or these instructions to operate the equipment�
Equipment can be dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain equipment� Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, missing parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the equipment’s op­eration. If damaged, have the equipment repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained equipment.
• Use the equipment and accessories in accordance with these instructions; taking into account the work­ing conditions and the work to be performed� Use of
the equipment for operations different from those intend­ed could result in a hazardous situation.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your equipment� Accessories that
may be suitable for one piece of equipment may become hazardous when used with other equipment.
• Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease�
This allows for better control of the equipment.
• Use and store batteries and chargers in dry, appro­priate temperature areas� Extreme temperatures and
moisture can damage batteries and result in leakage, electrical shock, fire or burns.
• Properly dispose of batteries� Exposure to high tem- peratures can cause the batteries to explode; do not dis­pose of in a fire. Some countries have regulations con­cerning battery disposal. Follow all applicable regulations.
Service
Have your equipment serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the equipment is maintained.

When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or any other small metal object that can make a connection from one terminal to the other. Shorting the battery terminals may cause burns or a fire.
4 – English
• Do not operate this equipment if either operator or CS6 is standing in water� Operating while in water in-

protection and isolation.
• Read and understand this operator’s manual, the SeeSnake Pipe Inspection reel operator’s manual, and the instructions for any other equipment in use�
Failure to follow instructions may result in property dam­age and/or serious personal injury.

after handling or using drain inspection equipment. To prevent contamination from toxic or infectious material, do not eat or smoke while operating or handling drain in­spection equipment.
• Always use appropriate personal protective equip­ment while handling and using equipment in drains�
Drains may contain chemicals, bacteria, and other sub­stances that may be toxic or infectious, or that may cause burns or other issues. Appropriate personal protective equipment always includes safety glasses, but may also include drain cleaning gloves or mitts, latex or rubber gloves, face shields, goggles, protective clothing, respira­tors, and steel-toed shoes.
• The AC power supply adapter is intended for indoor use only� When powered by battery, protect the CS6 from
exposure to weather.
• To prevent damage to the CS6 and to decrease the risk of injury, do not expose the CS6 to mechanical shocks�
The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this operator’s manual cannot cover all possible condi­tions and situations that may occur� It must be under­stood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator�
