GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA SAFETY
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating
fish tape. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a tool. Do not use
tools while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating tools may result in serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of this
tool allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, gloves, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
FISH TAPE USE AND CARE
Do not force fish tape if jammed. Use the correct
fish tape for your application. The correct fish tape will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed. Overloading fish tape could result in injury.
Store idle fish tape out of reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the tool or these
instructions to operate the fish tape. Fish tapes are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the fish tape's
operation. If damaged, have the fish tape repaired
before use. Keep fish tape clean. Dirty fish tapes can
bind and become hard to control.
Greenlee Tools, Inc.
Use only accessories and material that are
recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may
become hazardous when used on another tool.
Use the fish tape, accessories, etc. in accordance
with these instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the fish tape for operations different from
those intended can result in a hazardous situation.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the fish tape in unexpected situations.

Tool service must be performed only by qualified
repair personnel in accordance with this instruction
manual. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions from this
manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
maintenance instructions may create a risk of injury.

manner may result in personal injury.
