Product use and care
• Do not force the product. Use the correct product
for your application. The correct product will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.

it on and off. Any product that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

accessories, or storing products. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
product accidentally.

do not allow persons unfamiliar with the product or
these instructions to operate the product. Products
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain products and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
product's operation. If damaged, have the product
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained products.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.

in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the product for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.

and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and

manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.

battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.

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 fire.
• 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 irritations or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or
risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire
or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 130 °C / 265 °F 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 specified
range may damage the battery and increase the risk
of fire.
