SAFETY INFORMATION
Battery Tool Use and Care
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
• When a 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.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
Service
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Specific Safety Warnings for Impact Wrench
• Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock the operator.
• Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Secure the workpiece. Clamping devices or a vise will hold the workpiece in place better and
more safely than holding it by hand.
• Always wait until the tool has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The tool insert can
jam and lead to loss of control over the power tool.
• Before performing any kind of work on the tool (e.g., maintenance, tool change, etc.), as well as
when transporting and storing it, always set the rotational direction switch to the center position.
Unintentional activation of the On/Off switch may result in personal injury.
• When working with the power tool, always hold it firmly with both hands and provide a secure
stance. The power tool is guided more securely with both hands.
