GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING:
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 mainsoperated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
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.
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 exten-
sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suit-
able for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is un-
avoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of
electric shock.
Use battery only with charger listed. For use with 18V
nickel-cadmium and 18V lithium-ion battery packs, see
tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation supplement 987000-432.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon 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. Car-
rying 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 ro-
tating 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 jewel-
lery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery 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.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn
into air vents.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
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 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 bind-
ing 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 main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.

OPERATION
LOADING CAULK
See Figures 3 - 4, page 9.
Lock the switch trigger by sliding the switch lock up.
Using a utility knife, cut off the tip of the spout on a
standard 10 oz. tube of caulk. Cut the tip at a 45˚ angle.
Remove as little as possible, taking into consideration
the size of the “bead” of caulk you need.
Check for a second inner seal at the base of the spout. If
found, insert the puncture tool inside the spout to break
the seal before using. If using a partially filled tube, use
the puncture tool to remove any hardened material from
the tip.
NOTE: An inner seal is usually found only in cardboard
caulk tubes.
While holding the caulk gun steady with one hand, pull
the handle of the plunger rod away from the caulk gun.
Continue pulling until plunger base reaches the back of
the carriage frame.
Load the caulk tube into the carriage frame, making sure
it is well seated at both ends.
ELECTRONIC OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The caulk gun has an electronic overload protection feature.
If too much pressure is exerted on the tube, the motor will
shut down. This helps to prevent damage to the tool and the
caulk tube. If the motor shuts off, make sure that:
Nozzle tip is cut
Inner seal in the caulk tube is broken
Hardened material is removed from the nozzle
Caulk tube is not damaged or frozen
Plunger rod is free of caulk/adhesive materials
Release the trigger and wait for 3 to 5 seconds to allow the
electronics to reset. If the motor again shuts off, move the
variable speed selector to the middle position and press the
trigger again. If the motor continues to shut off, try another
tube of material or take the tool to an authorized service center.
APPLYING CAULK
See Figures 5 - 7, page 9.
Prepare the surface to be caulked by removing any dust,
dirt, or remnants of old caulking. Make sure the area to
be caulked is clean and dry.
Set the speed of the caulk gun to match your application
needs, using just enough caulk to do the job. Experiment
in an out-of-the-way area to find the best speed to use
to deliver the caulk bead you want.
Hold the gun at a slight angle. If filling a crack, insert the
spout into the crack, if possible; otherwise, run the caulk
gun along the surface.
Squeeze the trigger allowing the caulk to extrude from
the tube tip.
NOTE: If the bead of caulk is too narrow, re-cut the nozzle
to provide a larger opening. However, it is better to apply
a thin bead of caulk and add a little more if necessary than
to apply too much and attempt to remove the excess.
Carefully move the caulk gun at an even pace along the
gap to be filled as you continue to depress the switch
trigger. Make sure the caulk comes in full contact with
both application surfaces. If necessary, use your finger
to gently press the caulk into a corner or crack.
NOTE: The best fill is usually achieved by pushing the
caulk out into the gap in a forward motion. However, in
some cases (particularly where the side materials are
rough or uneven), a pulling motion may work better as
the cartridge will be less likely to get snagged along the
joint.
The motor will shut off automatically when a caulk tube
becomes empty. Pull the plunger rod back and replace
the caulk tube as necessary.
To end the caulk bead, release the switch trigger.
Draw a moistened finger or other “smoothing tool” along
the caulk bead after applying. This will help the caulk
adhere to the application surfaces and will create a clean,
finished appearance.
Use a damp towel or rag to clean off any excess caulk.
