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 trigger 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.

9)Do not touch the rotating parts to avoid injury.

10)Do not use the tool continuously for a long period of time. Stop using the tool from time to time to avoid temperature rise and heat overload of the motor.

11)Do not drop the tool.

WARNING!

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

Lead from lead-based paints

Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products

Arsenic and chromium from chemically- treated lumber.

To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
