recharged only with the specified charger
for the battery. A charger that may be suit- able for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.
5.Use battery operated tool only with specif- ically designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
Personal Safety
6.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 medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
7.Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth- ing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
8.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 bat- tery pack into a tool with the switch on invites accidents.
9.Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
10.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
11.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask,
Tool Use and Care
12.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 loss of control.
13.Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
14.Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. A tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
15.Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off posi- tion before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
16.Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
17.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 con- nection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire.
18.Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
19.Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool ser- viced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
20.Use only accessories that are recom- mended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when used on another tool.
