Additional Safety Warnings
1.Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool. These carry important safety infor- mation. If unreadable or missing, con- tact Harbor Freight Tools for a replace- ment.
2.Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
3.Do not lay the tool down until it has come to a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the surface and pull the tool out of your control.
4.When using a handheld power tool, maintain a firm grip on the tool with both hands to resist starting torque.
5.Do not leave the Charger unattended when it is plugged into an electrical outlet. Unplug it from its electrical outlet before leaving.
6.The battery charger gets hot during use. The charger’s heat can build up to unsafe levels and create a fire haz-
ard if it does not receive adequate venti- lation, due to an electrical fault, or if it is used in a hot environment.
Do not place the charger on a flammable surface. Do not obstruct any vents on the charger. Especially avoid placing the charger on carpets and rugs; they are not only flammable, but they also obstruct vents under the charger.
Place the charger on a stable, solid, nonflammable surface (such as a stable metal workbench or concrete floor) at least 1 foot away from all flammable objects, such as drapes or walls. Keep a fire extinguisher and a smoke detector in the area. Frequently monitor the charger and battery during use.
7.This product is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children.
8.People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electro- magnetic fields in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause pace- maker interference or pacemaker failure. In addition, people with pacemakers should:
•Avoid operating alone.
•Do not use with power switch locked on.
•Properly maintain and inspect to avoid electrical shock.
•Any power cord must be properly grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Inter- rupter (GFCI) should also be imple- mented – it prevents sustained electri- cal shock.
9.Some dust created by power sand- ing, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities, contains chemi- cals known [to the State of California] to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
•Lead from
•Crystalline silica from bricks and ce- ment or other masonry products
•Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilat- ed area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

& Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
