If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g)
Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc., in accordance with these
instructions taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a)
Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
b)
Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
c)
When battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects like paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
d)
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) SERVICE
a)
Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional Specific Safety Rules for
Rod Cutter
• This threaded rod cutter is intended
for cutting the following materials and
threaded rod sizes: Mild Steel (M6 X 1,
M8 X 1.25, M10 X 1.5, M12 X 1.75).
Stainless Steel (M6 X 1, M8 X 1.25,

the material and sizes specified in the
Applications chart under Intended Use.
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
• Inspect tool and cutting dies before
use. Replace any worn or damaged parts. A
damaged or improperly assembled tool can
break and strike operator or nearby personnel.
• NEVER have any part of your body near
the cutters. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
• ALWAYS wear gloves when handling
threaded rod. The ends and threads can be
sharp and can cause serious personal injury.

to prevent movement during cutting.
• Always wear safety shoes to protect your
feet from sharp metal debris on the floor.

loosening.
• Do not place anything into the motor housing
openings.
• Stay clear of end pieces that may fall after
cutting off. They may be hot, sharp and/or
heavy.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and
should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
Residual Risks

regulations and the implementation of safety
devices, certain residual risks cannot be avoided.
