serious injury.
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 atmos-
pheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operat-
ing 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. Un-
modifi 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 condi-
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car-
rying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase 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 residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use a power tool while you are tired or under the
infl uence 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 safety 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 fi nger on the
switch or energising 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.
• 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
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery 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.
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
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety 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. Pow-
er tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. 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 main-
tained 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 hazard-
ous situation.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
HEAT GUNS
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• Know your work environment. Hidden areas such
as behind walls, ceilings, fl oors, soffi t boards and other
panels may contain fl ammable materials that may ignite
when using the heat gun in these locations. Ignition of
these materials may not be readily apparent and could
result in property damage and personal injury. Check
these areas before applying heat. If in doubt, use an
alternate method. Pausing or lingering in one spot may

ignite the panel or the material behind it. Keep heat
gun moving to avoid excessive temperatures.
• Do not direct the heat gun air airfl ow at clothing,
hair or other body parts. Do not use as a hair dryer.
Heat guns can produce 1150°F (621°C) or more of
fl ameless heat at the nozzle. Contact with the air
stream could result in personal injury.
• Do not use near fl ammable liquids or in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of fumes,
gases or dust. The fl ameless heat from the heat gun
may ignite the dust or fumes. Remove materials or
debris that may become ignited from work area.
• Shield materials around the heated area to prevent
property damage or fi re.
• Keep a fi re extinguisher nearby. Heat guns may
ignite fl ammable materials left in the work area.
• WARNING! Hot Surfaces. Always hold the heat
gun by the plastic enclosure. Do not touch nozzle,
accessory tips or store heat gun until the nozzle
has cooled to room temperature. The metal nozzle
requires approximately 20 minutes to cool before it
can be touched. Contact with the nozzle or accessory
tip could result in personal injury. Place the heat gun
in a clear area away from combustible materials while
cooling to prevent fl ammable materials from igniting.
• Do not cut off airfl ow by placing nozzle too close
to workpiece. Keep intake vents clean and clear of
obstructions. Restricting airfl ow may cause the heat
gun to overheat.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR REMOVING PAINT
WARNING
Use extreme care when
stripping paint. Peelings, residue and vapors of
paint may contain lead, which is POISONOUS.
Pre-1977 paint may contain lead and paint
made before 1950 is likely to contain lead.
Hand to mouth contact with paint peelings or
residue from pre-1977 paint may result in lead
ingestion. Exposure to even low levels of lead
can cause irreversible brain and nervous
system damage. Young and unborn children are
especially vulnerable to lead poisoning. DO NOT
REMOVE LEAD-BASED PAINT WITH A HEAT
GUN. Before beginning your work, determine
whether the paint you are removing contains
lead. A local health department or a professional
who uses a paint analyzer can check the paint
for lead content. LEAD-BASED PAINT SHOULD
BE REMOVED ONLY BY A PROFESSIONAL.
PERSONS REMOVING PAINT SHOULD
FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES:
• Work in a well ventilated area. If possible, move
the workpiece outdoors. If working indoors, open win-
dows and place an exhaust fan in a window. Be sure
the fan is moving air from inside to outside. Proper
ventilation will reduce the risk of inhaling chemicals
found in the fumes or dust created by using a heat gun.
• Remove or cover any carpets, rugs, furniture,
clothing, cooking utensils and air ducts to prevent
property damage from the paint peelings.
• Place drop cloths in the work area to catch paint
scrapings. Wear protective clothing such as hats,
extra work shirts and overalls. Paint scrapings may
contain chemicals that are hazardous.
• Place the heat gun on a stable, level surface when
not hand held. Use the support pads or support
stand. Place cord in a position that won't cause the
heat gun to tip over.
• Do not leave the heat gun unattended while running
or cooling down. Inattention invites accidents.
• Store indoors in a dry location. Do not expose to
rain or moisture.
• Do not direct airfl ow directly on glass. The glass
may crack and could result in property damage or
personal injury.
• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry im-
portant information. If unreadable or missing, contact
a MILWAUKEE Service facility for a free replacement.
• WARNING Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activi-
ties contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples
of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• 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 fi lter
out microscopic particles.
• Work in one room at a time. Remove furnishings
or cover them and place in the center of the room.
Seal doorways with drop cloths to seal work area
from the rest of the building.
• Children, pregnant or potentially pregnant
women, and nursing mothers should not be near
work area until all work is completed and work area
is cleaned thoroughly.
• Wear a dust respirator mask or a dual filter
(dust and fume) respirator mask which has been
approved by the Occupational Safety and Health Ad-
ministration (OSHA), the National Institute of Safety
and Health (NIOSH), or the United States Bureau
of Mines. These masks and replaceable fi lters are
readily available at major hardware stores. Be sure
the mask fi ts. Beards and facial hair may keep masks
from sealing properly. Change fi lters often. DISPOS-
ABLE PAPER MASKS ARE NOT ADEQUATE.
• Use caution when operating the heat gun. Keep
the heat gun moving to prevent excessive tempera-
tures. Excessive heat can cause paint and other
materials to burn and cause fumes, which may be
inhaled by the operator.
• Keep work environment clean. Keep food and
drink away from work area. Wash hands, arms and
face and rinse mouth before eating and drinking. Do
not smoke, or chew gum or tobacco in the work area.
Paint scrapings and dust created from removing
paint may contain chemicals that are hazardous.
• Clean up all paint scraping and dust. DO NOT
SWEEP, DRY DUST OR VACUUM. Wet mop fl oors.
Use a wet cloth to clean all walls, sills and other sur-
faces where paint and dust have accumulated. Use
a high phosphate detergent, trisodium phosphate
(TSP), or a trisodium phosphate substitute to clean
and mop the work area.
• Dispose of paint scrapings properly. Following
