Noise hazards
Unprotected exposure to high noise levels can cause per-
1
manent, disabling, hearing loss and other problems such as
tinnitus (ringing, buzzing, whistling or humming in the ears);
Risk assessment and implementation of appropriate con-
trols for these hazards are essential.
2 Appropriate controls to reduce the risk may include actions
such as damping materials to prevent workpieces from
"ringing".
3 Use appropriate hearing protection.
4 Operate and maintain the tool as recommended in the Safe-
ty/Operating instructions manuals, to prevent an unneces-
sary increase in noise levels.
Vibration hazards
1 Information to conduct a risk assessment of these hazards
and implementation of appropriate controls is essential.
2 Exposure to vibration can cause disabling damage to the
nerves and blood supply of the hands and arms.
3 Wear warm clothing when working in cold conditions, keep
your hands warm and dry.
4 If you experience numbness, tingling, pain or whitening of
the skin in your fingers or hands, seek medical advice from
a qualified occupational health professional regarding over-
all activities.
5 Operate and maintain the tool as recommended in these in-
structions, to prevent an unnecessary increase in vibration
levels.
6 Hold the tool with a light, but safe, grip because the risk from
vibration is generally greater when the grip force is higher.
7 If an operator is exposed to tool vibration for a long period
of time, they may be in danger of repetitive strain injuries.
Additional safety instructions for gas tools
1 Gas tools shall only be used with Fuel Cell which are listed
in the Operating instructions manual of the tool.
2 Be careful when using gas tools, as the tool can become
hot, affecting grip and control.
3 Gas tools shall be used in ventilated spaces.
4 In the case that liquid combustible gas comes into contact
with human skin, injuries may occur.
5 Ensure combustible materials are not exposed to hot ex-
haust gases.
6 Do not use gas tools in explosive areas as the sparks gen-
erated in the tool may cause fire or explosion.
7 For gas tools, a small release of gas might be generated by
regular operations.
8 Cautions for Fuel Cell
1. Handle Fuel Cell carefully and check for damages. Dam-
aged Fuel Cell can explode and cause injury.
2. Read and follow the instructions printed on the Fuel Cell.
3. Store Fuel Cell in well-ventilated area.
4. Do not expose the Fuel Cell to the direct sunshine.
5. Do not place the Fuel Cell in a vehicle or a trunk where the
temperature could rise. It could explode. A used empty Fuel
Cell still contains a combustible propellant gas, which could
swell and explode a container into pieces.
6. Store the Fuel Cell at ambient temperature of 49°C (120°F)
or lower.
7. The Fuel Cell contains the pressurized combustible gas. If
it is exposed to the temperature higher than 49°C (120°F),
the gas could leak from it or burst, resulting in a fire.
8. Do not breathe in the gas.
9. Do not incinerate or recycle the empty Fuel Cell.
10. Never jet the gas to the human body.
11. Do not remove the rubber plug from the bottom of the Fuel
Cell except at disposal.
12. Do not make a hole in the Fuel Cell by driving a nail with a
hammer.
9 Cautions for Charger and Battery
1. Use specified battery for the tool. Never connect the tool to
a power source or other rechargeable battery, dry cells or
storage battery for automobiles. Neglect of this could cause
breakage, trouble, heat generation or combustion.
2. Charge with specified charger. If charged with other charg-
er, it could fail to be properly charged as well as get broken,
ignited or generate the heat.
3. Charge the Battery at the specified voltage. Never charge
at other than the specified voltage. Neglect of this could
cause combustion or heat generation.
4. Do not use transformer such as booster, engine generator
or DC power source to charge the Battery. Neglect of this
causes a trouble or burnout of the charger.
5. Do not charge the Battery in the rain or in the place exposed
to water splash or moisture. If it is charged in the wet condi-
tion, it could cause an electric shock or short-circuiting, re-
sulting in a fire due to burnout or combustion.
6. Do not touch a power plug with a wet hand. Holding it with
a wet hand could cause an electric shock.
7. Do not cover the charger in use with a cloth, and so on.
Putting a cover could generate the heat, resulting in a burn-
out or fire.
8. Do not put the charger close to a fire.
9. Do not charge the Battery near any combustible substance.
10. Charge the Battery in a well-ventilated area, protected
against the direct sunshine. Charging in the direct sunshine
could overheat the charger, resulting in a burnout or fire.
11. Charge the Battery at ambient temperature of 0°C (32°F) to
40°C (104°F). If the ambient temperature is less than 0°C
(32°F) to 40°C (104°F), charging may not be allowed, could
result in a fire.
12. Do not allow foreign objects into a ventilation hole or Battery
plug socket in the charger. They cause an electric shock or
trouble. Use in the place free of dust.
13. Handle a power cord with care. If you hold the power cord
of the AC adapter to carry or pull it to disconnect from a plug
socket, it will be damaged, resulting in snapping or short-
circuiting. Also, take care that it will not come into contact
with cutters, high-temperature substances, oil or grease.
Replace the damaged power cord with a new one.
14. Once the Battery is disconnected from the tool body, be
sure to cover it with a pack cap, unless it is used. In order to
prevent short-circuiting, cover the terminal block (metal sec-
tion) of the unused Battery with the pack cap.
15. Do not short-circuit the terminal block (metal section) of the
Battery. If it is short-circuited, a large current will run to over-
heat the Battery, causing you a burn or damage on it.
16. Do not throw the Battery into a fire. Neglect of this could
cause an explosion.
0 When connecting the Battery to the tool, be sure to observe
the following in order to prevent malfunctioning.
• Do not put your finger on the trigger.
• Do not press the contact nose against the object.
• Do not put your finger or hand near the discharge outlet.
• Check whether or not operating sound is heard, by only
connecting the Battery.
* If you connect the Battery and press the contact nose
against the floor, and so on, the fan of the tool will run,
but this is not abnormal.
• Check for heat generation or abnormal smell or sound.
If the tool is activated, generates the heat or emits ab-
normal smell or sound, it is an indication of trouble. Us-
ing the tool in that condition results in an accident. If any
abnormality is found, contact Celo authorized distributor.
a Unplug the charger when it is not used.
b Avoid the direct sunshine. Do not place the tool in vehicle or
trunk where the temperature could rise, because it could ex-
plode.
c Keep tool away from fire.
d Be sure to use the tool in the working environment of -10°C
(14°F) to 40°C (104°F), because otherwise the tool body
could be damaged, ignite or explode. -10°C (14°F) or lower:
The tool body could be damaged. 40°C (104°F) or higher:
The Fuel Cell could be damaged, resulting in ignition or ex-
plosion.
