• DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for
better and safe performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease.
• DISCONNECT OR LOCK OFF TOOLS when not in use, before
servicing, and when changing accessories, such as blades, bits,
cutters.
• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEY AND WRENCH. Form habit of checking
to see that key and adjusting wrench is removed from tool before
turning it on.
• AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don't carry tool with finger on
the switch. Be sure the switch is off when charging.
• STAY ALERT. Watch 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 that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A
guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise indicated
elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced
by authorized service center. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it
on and off.
• DO NOT OPERATE portable electric tools near flammable liquids or in
gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Motors in these tools normally
spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.
• When driving into walls, floors or wherever live electrical wires may be
encountered, DO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL!
Hold the tool only by the insulated grasping surfaces to prevent electric
shock if you drive into a live wire.

electric shock or electrocution.
To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather
than cord when disconnecting charger.
Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over,
or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary.
Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric
shock, or electrocution.
An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American
Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the
greater the capacity of the cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity
than 18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the
total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the
minimum wire size.
