ALL
READ INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT
We strongly recommend that this tool not be modified and /or used for any application other than that for which it was
designed. If you have any questions relating to its application, do not use the equipment until you have consulted us
and we have advised you.
1. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
2. CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don't use power tools in damp, wet, or poorly lit locations. Don't
expose your tool to rain. Keep the work area well lit. Don't use tools in explosive atmospheres or in the presence of
flammable gases, liquids, or dust.
3. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All children and bystanders should be kept away from the work area. Don't let them
distract you nor handle machinery, tools or extension cords.
4. OBSERVE PROPER PRECAUTIONS REGARDING DOUBLE INSULATION. If this tool is double insulated, it is
equipped with a polarized plug. One blade is wider than the other, so it will fit into a polarized outlet only one way.
If you have difficulty inserting the plug, try reversing it. If it still doesn't fit, do not alter the plug; have a qualified
electrician install a polarized outlet.
5. DO NOT USE ANY ADAPTOR PLUGS with grounded power tools.
6. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces: pipes, radiators, ranges,
and refrigerator enclosures. When drilling or cutting into walls, floors, or wherever "live" electrical wires may be
encountered, try to ascertain whether there is a danger of shock. Even so, DO NOT TOUCH METAL PARTS OF
THE TOOL. Hold the tool only by the plastic handle or the side grip to prevent electric shock if you hit a live wire.
7. STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing & use common sense. Don't operate any tool when you are tired.
8. USE SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Always wear eye protection. Use a full-face mask if the work you're doing produces
metal filings, dust or wood chips. Goggles are acceptable in other situations. Wear a clean dust mask if the work
involves creating a lot of fine or coarse dust.
9. AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don't carry tool with a finger on the switch. Be sure the direction switch is in
the NEUTRAL position when not in use or when changing sockets or bits.
10. DO NOT USE THE TOOL IF THE SWITCH DOES NOT TURN IT ON OR OFF. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired before further use.
11. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Make it a habit to check that keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from any rotating tool before using.
12. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This better ensures control of the power tool in
unexpected situations. Do not reach over or across machines that are running.
13. DRESS PROPERLY. Don't wear loose clothing or jewellery. They can be caught in moving parts. Protective,
non-electrically conductive gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working. Wear protective hair
covering to contain long hair and keep it from harm.
14. DISCONNECT THE TOOL FROM THE POWER SOURCE before making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools.
15. STORE IDLE EQUIPMENT. Store equipment in a dry area to inhibit rust. Equipment also should be in a high
location or locked up to keep it out of reach of children.
16. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions
for lubricating and changing accessories. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
17. DON'T FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better and more safely at the rate for which it was intended.
18. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force a small tool or attachment to do the work of a larger industrial tool. Don't use a
tool for a purpose for which it was not intended.
19. DO NOT TOUCH CHUCK OR BITS WITH HANDS AFTER USE. They can become extremely hot after use.
20. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold the workpiece if possible. It's safer than using your hands and it
frees both hands to operate the tool.
