Save all warnings and instruc-
tions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your 
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated 
(cordless) power tool.
Cordless Power Scraper Safety Warnings
1. Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can 
cause hearing loss.
2. Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the 
tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
3. 
Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces, when performing an operation where the 
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. 
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may 
make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" 
and could give the operator an electric shock.
4.  Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety glasses 
and/or face shield. Ordinary eye or sun glasses 
are NOT safety glasses. It is also highly recom-
mended that you wear a dust mask and thickly 
padded gloves.
5. 
Be sure the bit is secured in place before operation.
6. 
Under normal operation, the tool is designed to 
produce vibration. The screws can come loose 
easily, causing a breakdown or accident. Check 
tightness of screws carefully before operation.
7.  In cold weather or when the tool has not been 
used for a long time, let the tool warm up for 
a while by operating it under no load. This 
will loosen up the lubrication. Without proper 
warm-up, hammering operation is difcult.
8. Always be sure you have a rm footing. Be 
sure no one is below when using the tool in 
high locations.
9.  Hold the tool rmly with both hands.
10. Keep hands away from moving parts.
11. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool 
only when hand-held.
12. Do not point the tool at any one in the area 
when operating. The bit could y out and 
injure someone seriously.
13. 
Do not touch the bit, parts close to the bit, or 
workpiece immediately after operation; they 
may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
14.  Some material contains chemicals which may 
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhala-
tion and skin contact. Follow material supplier 
safety data.
15. 
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and 
the battery cartridge and the bit are removed 
before handing the tool to other person.
16. Do not operate the tool at no-load 
unnecessarily.
