WARNING! 
Read all instructions. Failure to 
follow all instructions listed below may result in 
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term 
“power tool” in all of the warnings listed below 
refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool 
or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA SAFETY
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark 
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable 
liquids, gases or dust.  Power tools create sparks 
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operat-
ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose 
control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never 
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter 
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.  
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce  
risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces 
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. 
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body 
is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk 
of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for  
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep 
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving 
parts.  Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk 
of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an exten-
sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suit-
able for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
For use with 19.2V nickel-cadmium and 19.2V lith-
ium-ion battery packs, see tool/appliance/battery 
pack/charger correlation supplement 988000-272.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use 
common sense when operating a power tool. Do 
not use a power tool while you are tired or under 
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A 
moment of inattention while operating power tools may 
result in serious personal injury.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. 
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety 
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appro-
priate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in 
the off-position before plugging in. Carrying power 
tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in 
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning 
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to 
a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal 
injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance 
at all times. This enables better control of the power 
tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
elry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from 
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can 
be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust 
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are 
connected and properly used. Use of these devices 
can reduce dust-related hazards.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long 
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn 
into air vents.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable 
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the 
power tool in unexpected situations.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power 
tool for your application. The correct power tool will 
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was 
designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not 
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be 
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be 
repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or 
the battery pack from the power tool before making 
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing 
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce 
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children 
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power 
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. 
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained 
users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or 
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any 
other condition that may affect the power tool’s 
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired 
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly 
maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less 
likely to bind and are easier to control.
