Instruction & User Manual
Read all safety warnings, instructions and
specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury. Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
WARNING!
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to
your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery
operated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
m Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
m 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.
m Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
m 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.
m 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.
m Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
m Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep the cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
m 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.
m 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.
3. Personal safety
m 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.
m 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 for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
m Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energising power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

5
JCB-18IL
Instruction & User Manual
m 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.
m Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
m Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and
clothing away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
m 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.
m 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.
4. Power tool use and care
m 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.
m 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.
m Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery pack,
if detachable, 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.
m 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.
m Maintain power tools and accessories.
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.
m Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control.
m 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 different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
m Keep handles and grasping surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
5. Service
m Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.

6JCB-18IL
Instruction & User Manual
m Recharge only with the charger
specified by the manufacturer. A
charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery pack.
m Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
m 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 fire.
m Under abusive conditions, liquid
may be ejected from the 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.
m Do not use a battery pack or
tool that is damaged or modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
m Do not expose battery pack or tool
to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperatures above
130°C may cause an explosion.
m Follow all charging instructions and
do not charge the battery pack or
tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the
specified range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of fire.
BATTERY SAFETY

causing fire and personal injury.
m Do not allow any liquid to get inside
the charger. Electric shock may result.
m Do not expose the charger to rain or
snow.
m Under certain conditions with the
charger plugged into the power
supply, the exposed charging contacts
inside the charger can be shorted by
foreign materials. Foreign materials of a
conductive nature such as, but not limited
to, steel, wool, aluminium foil or any buildup
of metallic particles should be kept away
from charger cavities.
m Always unplug the charger from
the power supply when there is no
battery in the cavity.
m Unplug the charger from the power
supply before attempting to clean.
m Do not operate the charger with a
damaged cord or plug. Have them
replaced immediately.
m The charger is designed to operate
on standard 230V household
electrical power. Do not attempt to
use it on any other voltage.
CHARGER SAFETY
