Lanyard‑Ready Attachment Kit (Fig. K)
(Included on some models)
safety Warnings specific for Use at height
WARNING:
•
Only use batteries that contain the integral battery
strap. Do not use unsecured batteries while the tool
is tethered. Unsecured batteries may detach from the
tool if dropped.
•
If the tool is dropped for any reason, the lanyard
attachment point and battery strap components
must be inspected and properly serviced prior to
re-use. The lanyard attachment point is designed to
stretch to absorb the shock of a drop. Any permanent
stretch to the device exposing the red marked internal
coils indicates it has been compromised and must be
serviced prior to reuse.
•
Always keep the tool and accessories tethered when
working "at height". (Maximum lanyard length: 2 m.)
•
Use only with lanyards appropriate for this tool type
and rated for at least the weight identified on the tool
lanyard attachment point label.
•
Crush, cut or entanglement hazard. Do not use near
moving parts, mechanisms or running machinery.
•
Do not anchor the tool lanyard to anything on your
body. Anchor to a rigid structure that can withstand
the forces of a dropped tool.
•
Make sure the lanyard is properly secure at each end
prior to use.
•
Inspect tool and lanyard before each use for damage
and proper function (including fabric and stitching).
Do not use if damaged or not functioning properly.

Do not alter the lanyard attachment point or use in a
manner other than as instructed in this manual.
•
Only attach tool to a lanyard with a locking carabiner.
Do not attach by looping or knotting the lanyard. Do
not use rope or cord.
•
Electrical shock hazard. Be sure power is off when
working in high voltage areas. Some lanyards
are conductive.
•
Dropped tools will swing on the lanyard, which could
cause injury or loss of balance.
•
Do not carry the tool by the attachment point, the
battery strap or the lanyard.
•
Do not attach more than one tool to each lanyard.
•
Only use appropriate D
attachment kit. NEVER modify tools to create
attachment points.
•
Only transfer the tool between hands while properly
balanced in a stable orientation.
•
Do not attach lanyards to tool in a way that keeps
guards, switches or lock-offs from operating properly.
•
Avoid getting tangled in the lanyard.
•
Keep lanyard away from the cutting area of the tool.
