General Safety Rules – For All Battery
Operated Tools
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches
and 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 bystanders, children, and visitors away while operat-
ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords
may create a fire.
• A battery operated tool 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 tool only with the specifically
designed battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create
a risk of fire.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while
tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medica-
tion. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury,
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair
can be caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving
parts and should also be avoided.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or
off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with
your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into a tool
with the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool
on. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the
tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
must be used for appropriate conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead to a loss of control.
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application.
The correct tool will do the job better and safer and the rate for
which it is designed.
