Cluttered, wet, or dark work areas can result in injury. Using the product in confined work areas
may put you dangerously close to other cutting tools and rotating parts.
Do not use the power system where there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g., in the

⚠CAUTION
POWER SYSTEM USE AND CARE
Do not force the power system. Products are safer and do a better job when used in the manner
for which they are designed. Plan your work, and use the correct product for the job.
Check for damaged parts before each use. Carefully check that the product will operate properly
and perform its intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately. Never operate the
product with a damaged part.
Do not use a product with a malfunctioning switch. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the power switch is dangerous and must be repaired by an authorized service representative
before using.
Disconnect the power/air supply from the product and place the switch in the locked or off position
before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Store the power system when it is not in use. Store it in a dry, secure place out of the reach of
children. Inspect the tool for good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for use with your product.
Accessories that may be suitable for one product may create a risk of injury when used with
another tool. Never use an accessory that has a lower operating speed or operating pressure than
the tool itself.
Keep guards in place and in working order. Never operate the product without the guards in place.
Do not leave the tool running unattended.
⚠WARNING
SHOCK HAZARD
DO NOT expose the inverter to rain, snow, spray, or bilge water.
Make sure the inverter wiring is of proper size and rating and in good condition. Operating the
inverter with damaged wiring may void warranty.
DO NOT use the inverter if it has been dropped, hit, worn, broken, or damaged.
DO NOT attempt to service or disassemble the inverter, as it does not have user-serviceable parts
and the internal capacitors remain charged even if the power source is disconnected.
Disconnect DC power source from the inverter, before attempting to service, clean, or operate on
any circuits connected to inverter. Turning off the controls will not reduce the risk of electric shock.
NEVER connect the inverter to any power distribution systems or branch circuits.
FIRE HAZARD
DO NOT cover or obstruct the ventilation of the inverter, as doing so may cause overheating.
