GENERAL SAFETY RULES

SERVICE

nTool service must be performed only by qualified re- pair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.

nWhen servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to fol- low Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

nHold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when per- forming an operation where the cutting tool may con- tact hidden wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

nKnow your power tool. Read operator’s manual care- fully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.

nAlways wear safety glasses with side shields. Everyday glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of eye injury.

nProtect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

nProtect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods of operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

nBattery tools do not have to be plugged into an elec- trical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery tool or when changing accessories. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.

nDo not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and pos- sibly injury.

nNever use a battery that has been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery immediately.

nBatteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.

nDo not charge battery tool in a damp or wet location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.

nFor best results, your battery tool should be charged in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than 100°F. Do not store outside or in vehicles.

nUnder extreme usage or temperature conditions, bat- tery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical attention. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
