SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(For All Tools)

WARNING: WHEN USING ELECTRIC TOOLS, BASIC SAFE-

TY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED TO

REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, AND PER-

SONAL INJURY, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

1.KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.

2.CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT. Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit. Don't expose power tools t o rain. Don't use tool in presence of flammable liquids or gases.

3.KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept away from work area. Don't let visitors contact tool or extension cord.

4.STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools should be stored in dry, and high or locked-up place - out of reach of children.

5.DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.

6.USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or attachment t o do the job of a heavy-duty tool. Don't use tool for purpose not intended.

7.DRESS PROPERLY. Don't wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering t o contain long hair.

8 . USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty.

9.DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it t o disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

IO. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It's safer than using your hand and it frees both hands t o operate tool.

11. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

12.MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing acces- sories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired by autho- rized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

13.DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use, before servicing, and when chang- ing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters.

14.REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking t o see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.

15.AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don't carry plugged-in tool with finger on switch. Be sure switch is OFF when plugging in.

16.OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.

17.STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Don't operate tool when you are tired.

18.CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked t o 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 serv- ice center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by authorized service center. Don't use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.

19.GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.

20.REPLACEMENTPARTS. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.

VOLTAGE WARNING: Before connecting the tool t o a power source (receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure the voltage supplied is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in SERIOUS INJURY t o the user - as well as damage t o the tool. If in doubt, DO NOT PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source with voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful t o the motor.

Charging

Connect the charging plug to the charging connector, then plug in the charger to the power receptacle. Charging takes 3 hours.

CAUTION :

0The battery in your new tool i s not fully charged. You will need to charge it before use. 0 Do not operate the tool during charging.

0 Overcharging more than 2 days considerably shortens the battery service life. Always unplug the charger after completing the charge.

When you charge a new tool or a tool which has not been used for a long period, it may not accept a full charge. This is a normal condition and does not indicate a problem. You can recharge the tool fully after discharging it almost completely a couple of times.

Reversingswitch action

This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of rotation. Move the revers- ing switch lever to the right for clockwise rotation or to the left for counterclock- wise.

Reversing switch lever

Counter- clockwise

CAUTION:

0 Always check the direction of rotation before operation.

0Use the reversing switch only when the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation before the tool stops may ruin the tool.

Operation

Place the point of the driver bit securely in the screw head and apply pressure to the tool to the extent that the bit will not slip off the screw. Then start the tool and drive the screw.

CAUTION :

0 Use the proper bit for the head of the screw that you wish to use.

0 If the screw binds, turn the tool off immediately and perform manual driving operation. If you keep the switch on, the operating time per battery charge may be shortened. Also, it may cause a malfunction of the tool.

Make sure that the driver bit i s inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.

0 When driving wood screws, predrill pilot holes to make driving easier and to pre-

vent splitting of the workpiece. See the 3.1 (118") chart.
