SERVICE
n Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair
personnel. Service or maintenance performed by un-
qualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.
n When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement
parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section
of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to
follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of
shock or injury.
n Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
ADDITIONAL RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
n Know your power tool. Read operator's manual carefully.
Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the spe-
cific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious
injury.
n Always 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.
IMPORTANT RULES FOR BATTERY TOOLS
n Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical
outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition.
Be aware of possible hazards when not using your bat-
tery tool or when changing accessories. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious
personal injury.
n Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or
heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly
injury.
n Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the pres-
ence 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 bat-
tery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush
with water immediately.
n Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.
n For 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.
n Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery
leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with your
skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neu-
tralize 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.
