WARNING

• Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction

activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects

or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

– Lead from lead-based paints.

– Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.

– Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

– Your risk from these exposures varies, depending upon how often you do this type of work.

• To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:

– Work in a well-ventilated area.

– Work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to

lter out microscopic particles.

– Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and

other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap

and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth or eyes or to lie on the skin may promote

absorption of harmful chemicals.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specications

provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed

below may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE

REFERENCE.

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 atmospheres, such as in the presence of

ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or

fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while operating 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. Unmodi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 conditions. Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, 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 ground fault circuit

interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power

tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the in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 a 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 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.

4

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.

Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent

and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction

of a second.

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 remove the battery pack, if

detachable, 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. Power tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain power tools and accessories. 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 maintained 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 hazardous situation.

Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery

handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in

unexpected situations.

Battery Tool Use And Care

Recharge only with the charger specied by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable

for one type of battery pack may create a risk of re when used with another battery pack.

Use power tools only with specically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery

packs may create a risk of injury and re.

When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from 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

re.

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If

contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek

medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

5

Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modied. Damaged or modied

batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in re, explosion or risk of injury.

Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re or excessive temperature. Exposure to re or

temperature above 265 °F may cause explosion.

Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the

temperature range specied in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures

outside the specied range may damage the battery and increase the risk of re.

Service

Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed

by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.

SAFETY WARNINGS FOR MULTI-TOOL

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation

where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting tool contacting

a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and could give the operator an

electric shock.

A suitable breathing respirator must be worn while sanding lead paint, some woods

and metal to avoid breathing the harmful/toxic dust or air.

Always wear safety goggles and a dust mask when sanding, especially when sanding

over-head.

The machine is not suitable for wet sanding.

Do not use sanding paper larger than needed. Extra paper extending beyond the sanding

pad can cause serious lacerations.

Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamping devices or in a vice is held more

securely than by hand.

Keep hands away from the cutting range. Do not reach under the workpiece. Contact with

the blade can lead to injuries.

Keep your hands away from the motor-housing vents. Hot air comes from the vents during

operation.
