IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
9. Keep articles of clothing, jewelry, hair, etc., away from moving parts to avoid
entanglement.
10. Do not operate any machine / tool when tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol
or medications.
11. Do not overreach when operating a tool. Proper footing and balance enables better
control of a tool in unexpected situations.
12. Use clamps or other practical ways to support or secure the work piece to a stable
platform. Holding the work piece by hand or against your body is not stable and may
lead to loss of control and injury.
WARNING! The grease gun can develop high pressure, up to 8,000 PSI. Use safety
glasses and gloves for protection during operation. Keep hands clear of the exposed
rubber portions of the hose. Replace hose if there is any sign of damage or excess ware.
WARNING! Extreme pressure may cause the nozzle extension or ex hose to burst.
Use only approved hoses and follow whip instructions and warnings.
13. Always wear fuel and oil-resistant gloves when working with uids.
14. Do not store the tool under extreme conditions.
15. Do not adapt the tool for any other purpose than what it was originally intended for.
16. When operating the tool, use proper eye and hearing protection as well as protective
gloves.
17. To maintain complete control, rmly hold your tool with both hands.
18. Never point the tool towards yourself.
19. Never force the tool. Excessive pressure could bend or break the tool or accessory,
resulting in damage to the tool, your work piece or serious personal injury.
20. Do not use the battery charger in damp or wet locations. Do not use the grease gun
or charger if it has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or immersed in liquid. To
avoid electrical shock, do not handle the charger, its power cord plug or the grease
gun with wet hands.
21. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or key that
is left attached may result in personal injury.
22. Disconnect power supply. Disconnect the tool from the power supply when not in
use, before cleaning, servicing or changing any parts or accessories.
23. Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on electrical equipment.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cooking stoves
and refrigerators. There is an increased chance of electrical shock if your body is
grounded.
24. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other.) This plug will t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not t
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician
to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation
eliminates the need for a three wire grounded power cord and grounded power sup-
ply system.
25. Disconnect power supply. Disconnect the tool from the power supply when
not in use, before cleaning, servicing or changing any parts or accessories.
26. Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on electrical equipment. Avoid
body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cooking stoves and
refrigerators. There is an increased chance of electrical shock if your body is grounded.

27. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other.) This plug will t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not t fully
in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician to install
a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the
need for a three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
28. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and ground-
ed in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualied electri-
cian if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tool should
electronically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to
carry electricity away from the user.
29. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry tools or pull the plug from an
outlet. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Do not operate
this tool if the power cord is frayed or damaged. Replace damaged cords immediately.
Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock. Do not modify the plug in any way.
30. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A”
or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock. Use
in conjunction with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). If operating a power tool in
a damp location is unavoidable, the use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock. It is
recommended that the GFCI should have a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
31. Avoid using an unnecessarily long extension cord. Choose a cord that is appropri-
ate for the situation, as a cord that is too long and running across the oor can be more
dangerous than helpful. Using a cord that is too long or too thin could damage the tool.
Unroll the cord completely to prevent it from overheating.
32. Place the electrical cord in a position that prevents it from coming into contact with
the tool and from getting caught by the work piece. The cord should always stay behind
the tool.
Battery Charger Safety Warnings
1. A battery operated tool with internal batteries or a separate battery pack must only
be powered by the included battery. Do not, for instance, mix dierent brands of tools
and batteries or use adapters to allow you to use a battery pack with a dierent voltage.
Using another battery pack could cause a re.
2. Batteries must only be recharged with the included charger. A charger that may be
suitable for one type of battery could cause a re when used with another battery.
3. Set the tool’s trigger switch to the OFF position before installing or removing the bat-
tery pack. This will prevent injury due to accidental starts.
4. Do not use the battery charger in damp or wet locations.
5. Do not store battery packs in containers / spaces with loose metal objects. Battery
pack terminals could be short circuited if they come into contact with metal objects. In
addition to damaging the battery pack, you increase the risk of a re.
NOTE: Before using your tool for the rst time, discharge the battery and then charge the
battery pack completely.
WARNING! Never burn batteries, as they can explode in a re. Do not charge leaking
batteries. Only a qualied service technician should perform maintenance on the bat-
tery pack. Contact local solid waste authorities for instructions on correct disposal or
recycling of the battery pack.

WARNING: Do not use the tool if the trigger does not function properly. Any tool that
cannot be controlled with the ON / OFF switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
1. Use the correct tool for the job. Maximize tool performance and safety by using the
tool for its intended task.
2. Do not modify this tool or use for a purpose for which it was not designed.
3. This tool was designed for a specic function.
Do Not:
a. Modify or alter the tool; all parts and accessories are designed with built-it safety
features that may be compromised if altered.
b. Use the tool in a way for which it was not designed.
Unpacking
1. Carefully remove the tool from the package.
2. Retain packing material until you have carefully inspected and satisfactorily installed
or operated the tool.
3. Inspect the parts carefully to make sure the tool was not damaged while shipping.
Charger Operation
1. Insert the battery pack into the charging socket of the charger. Then, plug the
charger into the nearest grounded, electrical outlet. To start charging, press the SET
button on the charger. The battery is charging when the green light is illuminated and the
red light goes out.
NOTE: Make sure the power circuit voltage is the same as that shown on the charger
specifications plate.
2. Before using the grease gun for the first time, be sure to discharge the new battery
before charging. All new rechargeable batteries come with 80% charge from the factory. If the
battery pack is installed in the gun, remove it by depressing the two battery release buttons
(one button on each side of the battery pack) and pull the battery pack out of the gun.
3. As a battery pack approaches the discharged state, you will notice a sharp drop in
tool performance. When the tool is unable to perform the task at hand, it is time to
recharge the battery pack. Recharging the battery pack before this condition is reached
will reduce the total work life of the pack. Discharging the pack beyond this point can
damage the pack.
4. Start the charging process by plugging in the battery charger to the power source
and inserting the battery into the battery charger slot. After the charging process is
complete (approximately 1 to 2 hours), the green light will go out and the red light will
illuminate. Remove the charger from the wall outlet and disconnect the battery pack.
NOTE: Battery temperatures will increase during and shortly after use. Batteries may not
accept a full charge if they are charged immediately after use. Allow the battery pack to
cool to room temperature before charging for the best results.
