the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

4)Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

5)Maintain power tools. Check for mis­ alignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other con­ dition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

6)Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

7)Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intend­ ed for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the work­ ing conditions and the work to be per­ formed.

Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Battery Tool Use and Care

1)Ensure the switch is in the off posi­ tion before inserting battery pack. Inserting battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

2)Recharge only with the charger spe­ cified by the manufacturer.

A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

3)Use power tools only with specifi­ cally designated battery packs.

Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

4)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 burns, or a fire.

5)Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

Service

1)Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of power tool is maintained.

II. SPECIFIC SAFE­

TY RULES

1)Wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods.

Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.

2)Be aware that this tool is always in an operating condition, since it does not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet.

3)Hold power tools by insulated grip­ ping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring.

Contact with a “live” wire will make ex­ posed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

4)If the bit becomes jammed, immediately turn the main switch off to prevent an overload which can damage the battery pack or motor. Use reverse motion to loosen jammed bits.

5)Do NOT operate the Forward/Reverse lever when the trigger switch is on. The battery will discharge rapidly and damage to the unit may occur.

6)When storing or carrying the tool, set the Forward/Reverse lever to the center position (switch lock).

7)Do not strain the tool by holding the speed control trigger halfway (speed control mode) so that the motor stops. The protection circuit will activate and may prevent speed control operation. If this happens, release the speed control trigger and squeeze again for normal operation.

8)Be careful not to get dust inside the chuck.
