and the following before using.
I
. ADDITIONAL SAFE-
TY RULES
1) Wear ear protectors when using the
tool for extended periods.
) Be aware that this tool is always in an
operating condition, since it does not have
to be plugged into an electrical outlet.
3) When screwing or driving into walls, floors,
etc., "live" electrical wires may be encoun-
tered. DO NOT TOUCH THE SOCKET
OR ANY FRONT METAL PARTS OF THE
TOOL! Hold the tool only by the plastic
handle to prevent electric shock in case
you screw or drive into a "live" wire.
4) Do NOT operate the Forward/Reverse
lever when the main switch is on. The bat-
tery will discharge rapidly and damage to
the unit may occur.
5) During charging, the charger may become
slightly warm. This is normal.
Do NOT charge the battery for a long peri-
od.
6) When storing or carrying the tool, set the
Forward/Reverse lever to the center posi-
tion (switch lock).
7) Do not strain the tool by holding the speed
control trigger halfway (speed control
mode) so that the motor stops.
