Operational Precautions
General Safety Instructions
1. Consider work area environment. Do not expose tools to rain. Do not use
tools in damp or wet locations:Keep work area clean and well lit. Do not use
tools in the present of flammable liquids or gases.
2. Guard against electric shock. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces.
3. Keep children away. Do not let visitors touch the tools or extension cord. All
visitors should be kept away from work area.
4. Store idle tools. When not in use, tool should be stored in a dry locked up
place, out of reach of children.
5. Do not force the tool. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was intended.
6. Stay alert. Watch out what you are doing:Use common sense. Do not operate
tool when you are tired. Check damaged parts. Before further use of the tool,
a guard or other part is damaged should be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and perform its intended function.
7. Check for alignment of moving parts, blinding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting and any other condition that may affect its operation.
8. A guard or other parts that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise indicated in this
instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by an authorized
service center. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on.
9. To ensure the designed operational integrity of power tools, do not remove
installed cover or screws.
10.Use your tool at lower input than specified on the nameplate, otherwise, the
finish may be spoiled and working efficiency reduced by motor overload.
11.Do not wipe plastic parts with solvent. Solvents such as gasoline, thinner,
benzene, carbon tetrachloride, alcohol, ammonia and oil containing chloric
annex may damage and crack plastic parts. Do not wipe them with such
solvent. Wipe plastic parts with a soft cloth lightly dampened with soap water.
12.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair keep
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
13.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection.
14.Do not overreach. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the
tool in unexpected situations.

Product Safety Instructions
1. Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the main switch in the locked or off
position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the
tool. Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
2. Remove adjusting keys or wenches before turning the tool on . A wrench or a
key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal
injury.
3. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the work piece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and
may lead to a loss of control.
4. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control.
5. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury
when used on another tool.
Important Safety Instructions for Charger & Battery Pack
1. Caution:To reduce risk of injury, charge only specific type rechargeable
battery packs. Other types of battery packs may burst causing personal injury
and damage.
2. Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on battery
packs and chargers.
3. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
4. To reduce the risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than
cord when disconnecting charger.
5. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the charger manufacture
may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
6. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped on, tripped
over, or otherwise subjected damage or stress.
7. Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug. Replace them
immediately.
8. Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or
otherwise damage in any way, take it to qualified center.
9. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting
any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
10. Do not disassemble charger or battery pack, take it to a qualified service
center while repair is required. Incorrect reassembling may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire.
