WARNING
• Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contains chemicals 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, cement, and other masonry products.
– Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
• Your risk from these exposures varies, depending upon how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
– Work in a well-ventilated area.
– Work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to
lter out microscopic particles.
– Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap
and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth or eyes or to lie on the skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications
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
flammable 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. Unmodied 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.
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 increased 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 ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI)” protected supply. Use of a GFCI 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 influence 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 dust mask, non-skid safely 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 energizing 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.

4
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 jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry 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 safely 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.
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 specifically 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.
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.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modied
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in re, explosion or risk of injury.

5
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to re or
temperature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
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 specied range may damage the battery and increase the risk of re.
Service
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.
Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed
by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SAFETY RULES FOR IMPACT DRIVER
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operating
where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.

slowing the tool to a stop. If this procedure is
not followed, the tool will have a tendency to
torque or twist in your hand when the screw
seats.
a. Install a suitable bit.
b. Apply just enough pressure to keep the bit
engaged on the screw.
c. Apply minimal pressure to the variable-
speed trigger switch intially. Increase the
spped only when full control can be maintained.
NOTICE:
a. Always use the correct type and size of bit for your application.
b. When turning in a screw at/near the cross cut end or an edge of wood, pre-drill a pilot hole
in order to avoid cracking of the wood.
c. When screw driving in hard wood, one should pre-drill a pilot hole.
WARNING Do not over-tighten, as the force of the impact driver can break the
fastener. Keep the impact driver at a right angle to the fastener to
avoid damaging the fastener head.

AVERTISSEMENT
• La poussière créée pendant le ponçage, le sciage, le polissage, le perçage et d’autres
activités liées à la construction peut contenir des produits chimiques reconnus par l’État
de la Californie comme étant la cause de cancer, d’anomalies congénitales et d’autres
problèmes liés aux fonctions reproductrices. Voici des exemples de ces produits chimiques :
–du plomb provenant de peintures à base de plomb;
–de la silice cristalline provenant de la brique, du ciment ou d’autres matériaux de
maçonnerie;
–de l’arsenic et du chrome provenant du bois d’œuvre traité avec un produit chimique.
• Les risques liés à l’exposition à ces produits varient selon le nombre de fois où vous
pratiquez ces activités. An de limiter votre exposition à ces produits chimiques :
–travaillez dans un endroit bien ventilé;
–munissez-vous de l’équipement de sécurité approuvé tel que des masques antipoussières
conçus spécialement pour ltrer les particules microscopiques;
–évitez l’exposition prolongée à la poussière causée par le ponçage mécanique, le sciage, le
polissage, le perçage et d’autres activités liées à la construction; Portez des vêtements de
protection et lavez à l’eau et au savon toutes les parties exposées. Les poussières pénétrant
dans votre bouche ou dans vos yeux et les poussières se déposant sur votre peau peuvent
causer l’absorption de produits chimiques dangereux.

AVERTISSEMENTS DE SÉCURITÉ GÉNÉRAUX RELATIFS AUX
OUTILS ÉLECTRIQUES
AVERTISSEMENT Lisez tous les avertissements, instructions, illustrations et
spécifications fournis avec cet outil électrique. Le non-
respect des consignes de sécurité ci-dessous peut occasionner un choc électrique, un
incendie ou des blessures graves.
CONSERVEZ TOUS LES AVERTISSEMENTS ET TOUTES
LES INSTRUCTIONS AFIN DE POUVOIR LES CONSULTER
ULTÉRIEUREMENT.
L’expression « outil électrique » utilisée dans les avertissements correspond aux outils
électriques alimentés sur secteur (à l) ou alimentés par piles (sans l).
Mesures de sécurité dans l’aire de travail
L’aire de travail doit être propre et bien éclairée. Une aire de travail encombrée et peu
éclairée augmente le risque d’accident.
N’utilisez pas d’outils électriques dans un milieu explosif, par exemple où il y a
présence de liquides, de vapeurs ou de poussières inflammables. Les outils électriques
produisent des étincelles susceptibles d’enammer ces poussières ou ces vapeurs.
Gardez les enfants et les autres personnes à l’écart lorsque vous utilisez un outil
électrique. Une distraction peut vous faire perdre la maîtrise de l’outil.
Consignes de sécurité relatives à l’électricité
Les fiches des outils électriques doivent correspondre à la prise. Ne modifiez jamais
la fiche de quelque façon que ce soit. N’utilisez pas d’adaptateur avec les outils
électriques mis à la terre. L’utilisation de ches non modiées dans les prises compatibles
réduit les risques de choc électrique.
Évitez de toucher à des surfaces mises à la terre, par exemple, un tuyau, un radiateur,
une cuisinière ou un réfrigérateur. Le contact du corps avec une surface mise à la terre
augmente les risques de choc électrique.
N’exposez pas les outils électriques à la pluie ou à tout autre environnement humide.
Les risques de choc électrique sont plus élevés si l’eau s’inltre dans un outil électrique.
N’utilisez pas le cordon d’alimentation de façon abusive. Ne transportez jamais un
outil électrique en le tenant par son cordon ou ne tirez jamais sur le cordon pour le
débrancher. Tenez le cordon d’alimentation éloigné des sources de chaleur, de l’huile,
des objets coupants et des pièces mobiles. Les risques de choc électrique sont plus
élevés si le cordon d’alimentation est endommagé ou emmêlé.
Lorsque vous utilisez un outil électrique à l’extérieur, servez-vous d’une rallonge
conçue pour être utilisée à l’extérieur. L’utilisation de ce type de rallonge réduit les risques
de choc électrique.
Si vous n’avez d’autre choix que d’utiliser un outil électrique dans un endroit humide,
utilisez une alimentation protégée par un disjoncteur différentiel. L’utilisation d’un
disjoncteur différentiel réduit les risques de choc électrique.
Sécurité personnelle
Soyez vigilant, prêtez attention à ce que vous faites et usez de votre jugement lorsque
vous utilisez un outil électrique. N’utilisez pas un outil électrique lorsque vous êtes
fatigué ou sous l’effet de drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un moment d’inattention
pendant que vous utilisez des outils électriques peut occasionner des blessures graves.
