• Do not operate the Camera in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases, or heavy dust.
• Keep work area well lighted. Do not use electrically powered tools in the presence of ammable gases or liquids. Do not bring
combustible materials near the tools. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite the dust or fumes. Do not immerse tool in liquids.
Keep work area clean, well ventilated and well lit. Cluttered work areas invite accidents.

not overreach, especially on ladders. Be certain ladders being used are sturdy, stable, on a rm surface and erected as safe working
angles. Do not reach over or across running machines, hoses, cords, etc.
• Inspect tool before every use; do not use if parts are loose or damaged.
• Do not alter this product in any way.
• 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 danger-
ous and must be repaired.
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to
follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.
• Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool. These carry important safety information. If unreadable or missing, contact Performance
Tool® for a replacement.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments or changing accessories. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• Do not use accessories which are not specically designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory
can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
• Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry location to inhibit rust. Always lock up tools and keep out of
reach of children and other untrained persons. Switch off all unused electrical tools when stored. Disconnect battery from unit. Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

known [to the State of California] to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
- Lead from lead-based paints.
- Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other masonry products.
- Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well-ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to
lter out microscopic particles. (California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
• The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations
that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this
product, but must be supplied by the operator.
• WARNING: This product and its packaging contain a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or
other reproductive harm.
