The battery Charger gets hot during
use. The Charger's heat can build up
to unsafe levels and create a fire
hazard if it does not receive adequate
ventilation, due to an electrical fault, or if it is
used in a hot environment. Do not place the
Charger on a flammable surface. Do not obstruct
any vents on the Charger. especially avoid
placing the charger on carpets and rugs; they
are not only flammable, but they also obstruct
vents under the charger. Place the Charger on
a stable, solid, nonflammable surface (such as a
stable metal workbench or concrete floor) at least
1 foot away from all flammable objects, such as
drapes or walls. Keep a fire extinguisher and a
smoke detector in the area. Frequently monitor
the Charger and Battery Pack while charging.

10. Vibration Safety
This tool vibrates during use.
Repeated or long‑term exposure to vibration may
cause temporary or permanent physical injury,
particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
To reduce the risk of vibration‑related injury:
a. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for
an extended period should first be examined
by a doctor and then have regular medical
check‑ups to ensure medical problems are not
being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant
women or people who have impaired blood
circulation to the hand, past hand injuries,
nervous system disorders, diabetes, or
Raynaud's Disease should not use this tool.
If you feel any symptoms related to
vibration (such as tingling, numbness,
and white or blue fingers), seek medical
advice as soon as possible.
b. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces
the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration‑related injury.
c. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the
vibration effects on the user.
d. Use tools with the lowest vibration
when there is a choice.
e. Include vibration‑free periods each day of work.
f. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping
safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.
g. To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as
explained in this manual. If any abnormal
vibration occurs, stop use immediately.
