Work Area Safety
• 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 flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

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 distraction while operating power tools may result in personal injury.
• Use personal protection equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.

Tool Use and Care
• To prevent leakage, overheating, smoke generation, fire, and rupturing from occurring, follow these
instructions when handling our rechargeable power tools (tool main body/battery pack/charger).
• Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and o. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the battery pack from the tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the tool or these
instructions to operate the tool. These tools can be dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may aect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool repaired before use.
SAFETY INFORMATION

7ECO-MK7EZ - OPERATOR MANUAL
MODEL: ECO-MK7EZ
• Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritation or burns.
Battery and Charger Use and Care
• Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on battery charger, battery pack,
and product using battery pack.
• To reduce the risk of injury, charge only Huskie Tools battery pack model BP-185. Other types of batteries may
burst causing personal injury and damage.
• Do not leave charger and battery pack exposed to rain or snow, submerge in water, or stored in damp or wet
locations.
• To reduce risk of damaging the electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting
charger.
• Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or
stress.
• Do not disassemble charger or battery pack, contact Huskie Tools service dept. at 800-860-6170 when service
or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
• Do not store the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 50°C (122°F)
(such as a metal tool shed, or a car in the summer), which can lead to deterioration of the storage battery.
• Do not charge battery pack when the temperature is below 0°C (32°F) or above 40°C (104°F). This is very
important to maintain optimal condition of the battery pack.
• The charger is designed to operate on standard 120V AC electrical power only. Do not attempt to use it on any
other voltage.
• Charge the battery pack in a well-ventilated place, do not cover the charger and battery pack with a cloth, etc.,
while charging.
• Use of an attachment not recommended may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury.
• Do not short the battery pack or allow metal objects to touch the terminals. A battery short can cause a large
current flow, overheating and create the risk of fire or personal injury.
• Huskie Tools is not responsible for any damage or accident caused by the use of recycled or counterfeit
battery pack.
• Do not incinerate the battery pack or dispose of the battery pack in a fire or expose it to excessive heat.
• Do not charge the battery pack in a high-temperature location, such as next to a fire or in direct sunlight.
Otherwise, the battery may overheat, catch fire, or explode.
• After removing the battery pack from the tool or the charger, always re-attach the pack cover. Otherwise, the
battery contacts could be shorted, leading to a risk of fire.
• When the battery pack has deteriorated, replace it with a new one. Continued use of a damaged battery pack
may result in heat generation, ignition or battery rupture.
• When storing, remove any material cuttings and dust from the battery pack, and place the battery pack
separately from metal objects (screws, nails, etc.) when storing in the tool case.
