3.3. Personal Safety
a. 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 influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operat-
ing power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b. 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 appropri-
ate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. 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 finger on the switch or energizing power
tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key (wrench, screwdriver...) 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.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpect-
ed situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex-
traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con-
nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
3.4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the job bet-
ter and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b. 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.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any ad-
justments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dan-
gerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind-
ing 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.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and
are easier to control.

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in ac-
cordance 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.
3.5. Battery tool use and care
a. Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufac-
turer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
b. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury
and fire.
c. 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.
d. 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 irri-
tation or burns.
e. Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged
or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
f. Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or exces-
sive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above
60°C may cause explosion.
3.6. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-
son using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure
that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

5. Important Safety Instructions for
Battery Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS:
This manual contains important
safety instructions for battery chargers. Before using charger,
read all instructions and cautionary markings on charger, bat-
tery pack, and product using battery pack.
WARNING:
Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get
inside charger.
CAUTION!
• Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury,
charge only designated JACTO batteries.
Other types of batteries may burst causing
personal injury and damage.
• Under certain conditions, with the charger
plugged in to the power supply, the charger
can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign
materials of a conductive nature such as, but
not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or
any buildup of metallic particles should be
kept away from charger contacts. Always
unplug the charger from the power supply
when not charging battery. Unplug charger
before attempting to clean.
WARNING!
• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery
pack with any chargers other than the
ones in this manual. The charger and
battery pack are specifically designed to
work together.
• These chargers are not intended for any
uses other than charging designated
JACTO lithium rechargeable batteries.
Any other uses may result in risk of fire,
electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
• Pull by plug rather than cord when dis-
connecting charger. This will reduce risk of
damage to electric plug and cord.
• Make sure that cord is located so that it
litres
will not be stepped on, tripped over, or
otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
• Do not use an extension cord unless it
meters
is absolutely necessary. Use of improper
extension cord could result in risk of fire,
electric shock, or electrocution.
• An extension cord must have adequate
wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge)
for safety. When using more than one
extension to make up the total length, be
sure each individual extension contains at
least the minimum wire size. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current that product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. The following table shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length
and nominal current presented in the label of
the charger mentioned in this manual. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge.

• Do not mount charger on wall or perma-
nently affix charger to any surface. The
charger is intended to use on a flat, stable
surface (i.e., table top, bench top).
• Do not operate charger with damaged
cord or plug - have them replaced imme-
diately.
• Do not operate charger if it has received a
sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged in any way. Take it to an autho-
rized service center.
• Do not disassemble charger; take it to
an authorized service center when service
or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly
may result in a risk of electric shock, electro-
cution or fire.
• Disconnect the charger from the outlet
before attempting any cleaning. This will
reduce the risk of electric shock. Removing the
battery pack will not reduce this risk.
• NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers
together.
• The charger is designed to operate on
standard household electrical power. Do
not attempt to use it on any other voltage.
• Battery chargers contain electronic parts.
Dispose of properly.
