4.1 EVERLOC+ TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or serious
personal injury, read the instruction manual for your
EVERLOC+ power tool, along with all warnings and
instructions for the battery and charger before operation
- Risk of electric shock. Never operate the power tool in damp or
wet conditions – never expose to rain or submerge in water or other
liquids. Never operate the power tool near wires or cables carrying
electric current.
- Always wear close-fitting protective eyewear that is impact-
rated with side protection to reduce the risk of permanent eye
injury.
- Always check your power tool and its attachments for proper
condition before starting work. Using a power tool that is
modified, damaged, improperly adjusted or maintained, or not
completely and securely assembled can increase the risk of severe
personal injury or a faulty connection and property damage.
- The EVERLOC+ Power Tool and EVERLOC+ XL Expander tool
are designed for one-handed operation. Wrap your fingers
tightly around the control handle as shown in this manual and
keep a secure grasp on the tool during work. Loss of control can
lead to injuries.
- The EVERLOC+ XL Power Tool is designed for two-handed
operation. Wrap your fingers tightly around the control handle
and the support handle as shown in this manual. Keep a
secure grasp on both tool handles during work. Loss of control
can lead to injuries.
- Always mount the support handle on the EVERLOC+ XL Power
Tool before starting work. The support handle helps the operator
maintain control of the power tool and helps reduce the risk of crush
or cut injuries. Never operate the power tool without the support
handle securely in place.
- Use only your index finger to trigger the tool. Using other fingers
to trigger the tool may cause you to lose control of the power tool or
increase the risk of personal injury, including pinch injuries.
- Moving parts can crush and cut. Keep hands and fingers clear
of the compression jaws, hydraulic slide and expander head
while operating. Always keep hands and fingers away from the
hydraulic slide and compression jaws to avoid trapping your fingers
in moving parts. The hydraulic slide and compression jaws are
potential pinch points.
- Keep hands and other parts of your body away from the
expander head, hydraulic slide and compression jaws during
operation to reduce the risk of injury. Avoid wearing bulky gloves
that may become caught in the compression jaws or make handling
the tool awkward or difficult.
- To reduce the risk of unintended activation, remove the battery
before changing or adjusting the expander head or compres-
sion jaws. Pinching fingers or trapping other parts of your body in
the expander head, hydraulic slide or compression jaws can result in
8
serious crush and cut injuries.
- For use only with REHAU or REHAU-authorized accessories or
attachments. Although certain unauthorized accessories and
attachments may fit onto the power tool, their use may, in fact, be
extremely dangerous and result in personal injury and faulty
connections, which can lead to leaking and property damage.
- For proper installation, the expander head and compression
jaws must match the dimension of the RAUPEX PEXa pipe
being installed. Failure to mount the proper size expander head or
compression jaws before installing a connection may be dangerous
and also result in a faulty connection, which can lead to leaking and
property damage.
- For use only with RAUPEX PEXa pipe and the EVERLOC+
compression-sleeve fitting system. Other materials or fittings
may crack or otherwise fail, which could result in leaking and
substantial property damage.
- If your power tool or any part is damaged or does not function
properly, have it repaired by an authorized REHAU service
center. There are no user-authorized repairs for the battery, charger
or power tool. Do not use the power tool until the problem has been
corrected.
- To reduce the risk of personal injury from accidental activation
of the power tool, always remove the battery pack before
changing attachments, inspecting, cleaning, lubricating or
performing any other type of maintenance, inspection, repair
or cleaning.
- 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.
- Do not expose the battery pack or tool to fire or excessive
temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 265°F (130°C)
may cause explosion.
- 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.
- Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs
should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service
providers.
- Do not operate the power tool while under the influence of any
substance (drug, alcohol, medication, etc.) that might impair
vision, balance, dexterity or judgment.
- Working with a power tool can be strenuous. The operator must
be in good physical condition. To reduce the risk of injury from loss
of control, be alert. Do not operate the power tool when tired. Take a
break if you become tired. Always hold the tool firmly while working
as directed in the instruction manual.
- Make sure you have good balance and secure footing at all
times. Use caution when working from a ladder or other elevated
platform. Do not overreach.
