English
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.

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.

damaged or modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.

or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 265°F may
cause explosion.

charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the
instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside
the specified range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of fire.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS

1. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation where
the fastener may contact hidden wiring.
Fasteners contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
2. Make sure to securely hold the tool during operation.
Failure to do so can result in accidents or injuries.
(Fig. 1)
3. ALWAYS wear ear protectors when using the tool
for extended periods.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can cause
hearing loss.
4. NEVER place hands or other body parts near the drill
bit or chuck during operation. Hold the impact wrench
by its handle only.
5. Because the cordless power tool operates by battery
power, be aware of the fact that it can begin to
operate at any time.
6. When working at elevated locations, clear the area of
all other people and be aware of conditions below
you.
7. NEVER touch moving parts.
NEVER place your hands, fingers or other body parts
near the tool's moving parts.
8. NEVER operate without all guards in place.
NEVER operate this tool without all guards or safety
features in place and in proper working order. If
maintenance or servicing requires the removal of a
guard or safety feature, be sure to replace the guard
or safety feature before resuming operation of the
tool.
