WARNING! 

Read and understand all instructions. Failure 

to follow all instructions listed below may 

result in electric shock, fire and/or serious 

personal injury:

■ Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered 

or dark areas invite accidents.
■ Do not operate cordless power tools in 

explosive atmospheres, such as in the 

presence of flammable liquids, gases, or 

dust. Cordless power tools create sparks 

which may ignite the dust or fumes.
■ Do not operate in poor lighting.
■ Avoid Dangerous Environment - Don’t use 

appliances in damp or wet locations. Don’t 

Use In Rain.
■ Keep Children Away - All visitors should be 

kept at a distance from work area.  
■ Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close 

attention is necessary when used by or near 

children.
■ Do not expose cordless power tools to rain 

or wet conditions. Do not handle plug or tool 

with wet hands. Water entering the tool will 

increase the risk of electric shock.
■ Do not charge battery in rain, or damp or 

wet location. Following this rule will reduce 

the risk of electric shock.
■ Do not abuse the charger cord. Never use 

the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging. 

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges 

or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords 

increase the risk of electric shock. If charger 

cord is damaged, replace the charger with 

an identical model as listed in the Product 

Specifications in this manual.
■ Stay Alert - Watch what you are doing. 

Use common sense. Do not operate tools 

when you are tired or under the influence of 

drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of 

inattention while operating tools may result in 

serious personal injury.

■ Use personal protective equipment. Always 

wear eye protection. Protective equipment 

such as dusk mask, non-skid safety shoes, 

hard hat, or hearing protection used for 

appropriate conditions will reduce personal 

injuries. Secure long hair above shoulder 

level to prevent entanglement in moving 

parts.
■ Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure 

switch is in the off-position before installing 

battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. 

Carrying cordless power tools with your 

finger on the switch or energizing cordless 

power tools that have the switch on invites 

accidents.
■ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing 

and balance at all times. This enables better 

control of the tool in unexpected situations. 

Operate the tool only when standing on fixed, 

secure and level surface. Slippery or unstable 

surfaces such as ladders may cause a loss of 

balance or control of the product.
■ Dress Properly - Do not wear loose clothing 

or jewelry. They can be caught in moving 

parts. Use of rubber gloves and substantial 

footwear is recommended when working 

outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to 

contain long hair.
■ Wear heavy, long pants, long sleeves, 

boots, and gloves. Do not wear loose fitting 

clothing, shorts pants, sandals or similar 

lightweight footwear or go barefoot.
■ Keep all parts of your body away from any 

moving parts and all hot surfaces of the unit.
