Safety warnings
General power tool safety warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specications provided with this
power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, re and/or serious
injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
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 ammable liquids, gases or
dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
>
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
>
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.

Safety information
Getting Started . . .
>
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.
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 inuence 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 for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
>
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 nger on the switch or energising 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.

MSID18-Li Safety information
Getting Started . . .
>
Do not overreach. 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 jewellery.
Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery 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.
Power tool use and care
>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 off.
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 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.
>
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.

MSID18-Li
Safety information
Getting Started . . .
>
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
.
>
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 different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation
.
>
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.
Battery tool use and care
>
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 re when used with another battery
pack.
>
Use power tools only with specically designated 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.

MSID18-Li Safety information
Getting Started . . .
>
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.
>
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in re, explosion or risk of
injury.
>Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re or excessive
temperature.
Exposure to re or temperature above 130 °C
may cause explosion.
>
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specied in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specied range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of re.
Service
>
Have your power tools serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will
ensure that safety of the power tool is maintained.
>
Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery
packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or
authorized service providers.
Impact driver safety warnings
>
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the fastener may contact
hidden wiring.
Fastener contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give
the operator an electric shock.
