ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR ABRASIVE CUTTING-OFF
OPERATIONS:
a)
Do not "jam" the cut-off wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt
to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the
loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the
possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
b)
Do not position your body in line with and behind the rotating wheel. When
the wheel, at the point of operation, is moving away from your body, the possible
kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
c)
When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off
the power tool and hold the power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from the cut while
the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate and take
corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel binding.
d)
Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel reach full
speed and carefully reenter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if
the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
e)
Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel
pinching and kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight.
Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and near the
edge of the workpiece on both sides of the wheel.

f)
Use extra caution when making a "pocket cut" into existing walls or other
blind areas. The protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring

or objects that can cause kickback.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR SANDING OPERATIONS
Safety Warnings Specific for Sanding Operations:
a)
Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc paper. Follow manufacturers
recommendations, when selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding paper
extending beyond the sanding pad presents a laceration hazard and may cause
snagging, tearing of the disc or kickback.
SAFETY WARNINGS FOR BATTERY PACK
a)
Do not dismantle, open or shred cells or battery pack.
b) Do not short-circuit a battery pack. Do not store battery packs
haphazardly in a box or drawer where they may short-circuit each other
or be short-circuited by conductive materials. 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 fire.
c)
Do not expose battery pack to heat or fire. Avoid storage in direct
