KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HEED ALL WARNINGS
FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate products in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Products create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
A battery operated product with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.
Use battery operated product only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
Use only with charger listed. For use with 18V nickelcadmium and 18 V lithium-ion battery packs, see tool/ appliance/battery pack/charger correlation supplement 987000-432.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enable better control of the product in unexpected situations.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable footing on a solid surface enables better control of the product in unexpected situations.
PRODUCT USE AND CARE
Do not use product if switch does not turn it on or off. A product that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect battery pack from product or place the switch in the locked or off position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the product. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the product accidentally.
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 sparks, burns, or a fire.
Keep the radio and its handle dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleumbased products, or any strong solvents to clean your radio. Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure plastic.

Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
