GENERAL SAFETY RULES
n Battery tools do not have to be plugged into
an electrical 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

not use a battery pack or charger that has been
dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged

that can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals together
