Additional Specific Safety Rules

• Hold 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.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration
caused by tool action may be harmful to your hands and arms. Use
gloves to provide extra cushion and limit exposure by taking frequent
rest periods.
WARNING: ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday eyeglasses
are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation
is dusty. ALL USERS AND BYSTANDERS MUST ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples
of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry
products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do
this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in
a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities.
Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap
and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the
skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which
may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust
exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection
that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some
conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute
to hearing loss.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable
surface where it will not cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some
tools with large battery packs will stand upright on the battery pack but
may be easily knocked over.
