SERVICE
• Toolservice
must be performed only by qualified repair
personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by un-
qualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.
• 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.
•
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
•
Know your power tool. Read operator's manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specific potential hazards related to this
tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock, fire, or serious injury.
• Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Ev-
eryday glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They
are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce
the risk of eye injury.
RULES
FOR
BATTERY
TOOLS
•
Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an elec-
trical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating
condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not
using your battery tool or when changing accessories.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire, or serious personal injury.
•
Do not place battery tools or their batteries
near
fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and
possibly injury.
•
Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the
presence 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 battery can propel debris and chemicals.
If exposed, flush with water immediately.
•
Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet loca-
tion. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock.
•
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.
•
Under extreme
usage or temperature
condi-
tions, battery
leakage may occur. If liquid comes
in contact with your skin, wash immediately
with
soap and water, then neutralize
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.
