WARNING: The declared vibration
emission level represents the main
applications of the tool. However if the
tool is used for dierent applications,
with dierent accessories or poorly
maintained, the vibration emission may
dier. This may signicantly increase the
exposure level over the total working
period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to
vibration should also take into account
the times when the tool is not used
or when it is running but not actually
setting a rivet. This may signicantly
reduce the exposure level over the total
working period.
Identify additional safety measures to
protect the operator from the eects of
vibration such as: maintain the tool and
the accessories, keep the hands warm,
organisation of work patterns.

Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
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. Unmodied 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
conditions. 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
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the
risk of electric shock

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 inuence of drugs, alcohol or medica-
tion. 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 dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the o-position before connect-
ing to the power source and/or battery pack,
picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power
tools with your nger on the switch or energis-
ing 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 bal-
ance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
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 o. 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 ac-
cessories, 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 op-
erate 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 aect 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
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc., in accordance with these instructions
taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations dierent from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
Recharge only with the charger specied by the
manufacturer.A charger that is suitable for one
type of battery pack may create a risk of re when
used with another battery pack.
Use power tools only with specically desig-
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and re.
When battery pack 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 a re.
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.

These chargers are not intended for
any uses other than charging POP®
rechargeable batteries. Any other uses
may result in risk of re, electric shock or
electrocution.
Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
Pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting charger. This will reduce risk
of damage to electric plug and cord.
Make sure that cord is located so that it will
not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
Do not use an extension cord unless it
is absolutely necessary. Use of improper
extension cord could result in risk of re,
electric shock or electrocution.
When operating a charger outdoors, always
provide a dry location and use an extension

The charger will indicate faulty battery by refusing to
light or by displaying problem pack or charger blink
pattern.
NOTE : This could also mean a problem with a
charger.
If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger
and battery pack to be tested at an authorised
service centre.
12. Hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery that is too hot
or too cold, it automatically starts a hot/cold pack
delay, suspending charging until the battery has
reached an appropriate temperature. The charger
then automatically switches to the pack charging
mode. This feature ensures maximum battery life.
Emhart Li-Ion tools are designed with an Electronic
Protection System that will protect the battery
against overloading, overheating or deep discharge.
The tool will automatically turn o if the Electronic
Protection System engages. If this occurs, place the
Li-Ion battery on the charger until it is fully charged.
A cold battery pack will charge at about half the rate
of a warm battery pack. The battery pack will charge
at that slower rate throughout the entire charging
cycle and will not return to maximum charge rate
even if the battery warms.
13. Important Safety Instructions for
All Battery Packs
When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure
to include the catalog number and voltage.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the
carton. Before using the battery pack and charger,
