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 inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat or hearing protection used appropriately will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position
before connecting to power source and/or battery and when picking

SAFETY
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the
switch or energizing 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.
• Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing appliance. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the appliance
accidentally.
• Do not over-reach. 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 jewelry. 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 dust collection can reduce dust related hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you
to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless
action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
• Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the battery pack
(as applicable) except as indicated in the instructions for use and
care.
Battery Tool Use and Care
• Recharge only with ECHO eFORCE®56V battery series chargers. A
charger that is suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of re
when used with another battery.
• Use only with ECHO eFORCE®56V battery series. Use of any other
batteries may create a risk of injury and re.
• When battery is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects
that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or re.
• Do not open or destroy the battery. Electrolytes contained within the
battery are corrosive and may cause damage to eyes or skin if released. It
may be toxic if swallowed.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery;
avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected
from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Exercise care in handling batteries to avoid shorting the battery
with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, keys, etc. The

battery or conductor may overheat and cause burns if contact with said
materials is made.
• Do not use a battery or tool that is damaged or modied. Damaged
or modied batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in re,
explosion or risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery or tool to re or excessive temperature.
Exposure to re or temperature above 265˚F(130 ˚C) may cause
explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery or tool
outside the temperature range specied in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specied range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of re.
Service
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using
only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
• Never service damaged batteries. Service of batteries should only be
performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
