IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read all safety warnings and all instructions in this manual and in the battery
charger manual. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in elec-
tric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
Do not allow children to use the cordless work-
light. It is intended for professional use. Chil-
dren can unintentionally blind themselves or
other persons.
Do not operate area lights in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Area lights create heat
and sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Do not expose area lights to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering an worklight will increase
the risk of electric shock or fire.
After the automatic shut-off of the cordless
worklight, do not continue to press the On/Off
button. The battery could become damaged.
Do not direct the light beam at persons or ani-
mals and do not stare into the light beam your-
self (not even from a distance).
Do not turn on/off the light without line of
sight to the light. Operator working near the
light may be startled by the sudden bright light
(turn light on) or left out in the dark (turn light
off). Turning light on/off when there is operator
near the light can cause personal injury or prop-
erty damage.
