GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING:
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow
all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work Area
■
Keep your work area clean and well lit . Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
■ Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liq-
uids, gases, or dust.
Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
■
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while
operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
Electrical Safety
■
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry
the charger. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately.
Damaged cords may create a fire.
■ A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a
separate battery pack must be recharged only with
the specified charger for the battery.
A charger that
may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk
of fire when used with another battery. Use battery only
with charger listed.

■ Use battery operated tool only with specifically
designated battery pack. Use of any other batteries
may create a risk of fire. Use only with battery pack listed.
Personal Safety
■
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not use
tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, al-
cohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal in-
jury.
■
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
elry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and
gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jew-
elry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
■ 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 battery pack into a tool with the switch on, invites
accidents.
■
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.
■ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
Proper footing and balance enable better
control of the tool in unexpected situations. Do not use
on a ladder or unstable support.
■
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
