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 exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

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

5)If the bit becomes jammed, imme- diately turn the trigger switch off to prevent an overload which can damage the battery pack or mo- tor. Use reverse motion to loosen jammed bits.

6)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.

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

8)Do not strain the tool by holding the speed control trigger halfway (speed control mode) so that the motor stops. The protection cir- cuit will activate and may prevent speed control operation. If this hap- pens, release the speed control trigger and squeeze again for nor- mal operation.

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

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

11)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.

12)Do not drop the tool.

13)Wear dust mask, if the work causes dust.

14)During charging, the charger may be- come slightly warm. This is normal. Do NOT charge the battery for a long period.

WARNING:

Some dust created by power sand- ing, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of Cal- ifornia 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 prod- ucts

*Arsenic and chromium from chem- ically-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 the microscopic particles.
