GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS
follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
all warnings and instructions for future reference
ings 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 atmos-
pheres, such as in the presence of fl 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. Unmodifi 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 condi-
tions. 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 residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD 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 infl 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 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 fi nger on the switch or energising power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
. Failure to
.
The term "power tool" in the warn-
• 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.
• 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, jewel-
lery 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.
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 the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren 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. 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.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
HEAT GUNS
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Save
• Know your work environment. Hidden areas such
as behind walls, ceilings, fl oors, soffi t boards and
other panels may contain fl ammable materials that
may ignite when using the heat gun in these loca-
tions. Ignition of these materials may not be readily
apparent and could result in property damage and
personal injury. Check these areas before applying
heat. If in doubt, use an alternate method. Pausing
or lingering in one spot may ignite the panel or the
material behind it. Keep heat gun moving to avoid
excessive temperatures.
• Do not direct the heat gun air airfl ow at clothing,
hair or other body parts. Do not use as a hair
dryer. Heat guns can produce 1100°F (593°C) or
more of fl ameless heat at the nozzle. Contact with
the air stream could result in personal injury.
• Do not use near fl ammable liquids or in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of fumes,
gases or dust. The fl ameless heat from the heat
gun may ignite the dust or fumes. Remove materials
or debris that may become ignited from work area.
• Shield materials around the heated area to pre-
vent property damage or fi re.
• Keep a fi re extinguisher nearby. Heat guns may
ignite fl ammable materials left in the work area.
• WARNING! Hot Surfaces. Always hold the heat
gun by the plastic enclosure. Do not touch
nozzle, accessory tips or store heat gun until
the nozzle has cooled to room temperature. The
metal nozzle requires approximately 20 minutes
to cool before it can be touched. Contact with the
nozzle or accessory tip could result in personal
injury. Place the heat gun in a clear area away from
combustible materials while cooling to prevent fl am-
mable materials from igniting.
• Do not cut off airfl ow by placing nozzle too close
to workpiece. Keep intake vents clean and clear of
obstructions. Restricting airfl ow may cause the heat
gun to overheat.
• Place the heat gun on a stable, level surface
when not hand held. Use the support pads or
support stand. Place cord in a position that won't
cause the heat gun to tip over.
• Do not leave the heat gun unattended while run-
ning or cooling down. Inattention invites accidents.
• Store indoors in a dry location. Do not expose to
rain or moisture.
• Do not direct airfl ow directly on glass. The glass
may crack and could result in property damage or
personal injury.
• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry
important information. If unreadable or missing,
contact a MILWAUKEE Service facility for a free
replacement.
• WARNING Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause can-
cer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe-
cially designed to fi lter out microscopic particles.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR REMOVING PAINT
WARNING
Use extreme care when
stripping paint. Peelings, residue and vapors of
paint may contain lead, which is POISONOUS.
Pre-1977 paint may contain lead and paint
made before 1950 is likely to contain lead.
Hand to mouth contact with paint peelings or
residue from pre-1977 paint may result in lead
ingestion. Exposure to even low levels of lead
can cause irreversible brain and nervous
system damage. Young and unborn children are
especially vulnerable to lead poisoning. DO NOT
REMOVE LEAD-BASED PAINT WITH A HEAT
GUN. Before beginning your work, determine
whether the paint you are removing contains
lead. A local health department or a professional
who uses a paint analyzer can check the paint for
lead content. LEAD-BASED PAINT SHOULD BE
REMOVED ONLY BY A PROFESSIONAL.
PERSONS REMOVING PAINT SHOULD
FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES:
• Work in a well ventilated area. If possible, move the
workpiece outdoors. If working indoors, open windows
and place an exhaust fan in a window. Be sure the fan
is moving air from inside to outside. Proper ventilation
will reduce the risk of inhaling chemicals found in the
fumes or dust created by using a heat gun.
• Remove or cover any carpets, rugs, furniture,
clothing, cooking utensils and air ducts to prevent
property damage from the paint peelings.
• Place drop cloths in the work area to catch paint
scrapings. Wear protective clothing such as hats,
extra work shirts and overalls. Paint scrapings may
contain chemicals that are hazardous.
• Work in one room at a time. Remove furnishings
or cover them and place in the center of the room.
Seal doorways with drop cloths to seal work area
from the rest of the building.
• Children, pregnant or potentially pregnant
women, and nursing mothers should not be near
work area until all work is completed and work area
is cleaned thoroughly.
• Wear a dust respirator mask or a dual filter
(dust and fume) respirator mask which has been
approved by the Occupational Safety and Health Ad-
ministration (OSHA), the National Institute of Safety
and Health (NIOSH), or the United States Bureau
of Mines. These masks and replaceable fi lters are
readily available at major hardware stores. Be sure
the mask fi ts. Beards and facial hair may keep masks
from sealing properly. Change fi lters often. DISPOS-
ABLE PAPER MASKS ARE NOT ADEQUATE.
