RATCHET WRENCH SAFETY WARNINGS
■
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the fastener
may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
■
Ambient temperature range for tool during operation is
between 0 ˚C and 40 ˚C.
■
Ambient temperature range for tool storage is between
0 ˚C and 40 ˚C.
■
The recommended ambient temperature range for the
charging system during charging is between 10 ˚C and
38 ˚C.
ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS
■
To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product
damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your
tool, battery pack or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to
flow inside them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such
as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach
or bleach-containing products, etc., can cause a short
circuit.

■
damage to hearing caused by noise
Wear suitable hearing protection and limit exposure.
–
■
injury to the eyes
Wear protective eye shields or goggles when using
–
the product.
■

Limit exposure. Follow the instructions in Risk
–
Reduction.
■
electric shock caused by contact with hidden wires
Hold the product only by insulated services.
–
■
injury caused by dust
Dust created by operating the product can cause
–
respiratory injury. Wear appropriate dust control
mask with filters suitable for protecting against
particles from the material being worked on.
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome
in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling,
numbness and blanching of the fi ngers, usually apparent
upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to
cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices
are all thought to contribute to the development of these
symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the
operator to possibly reduce the eff ects of vibration:
■
Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating
the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists
warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor
contributing to Raynaud's Syndrome.
■
After each period of operation, exercise to increase
blood circulation.
■
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure
per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition,
immediately discontinue use and see your doctor about
these symptoms.
WARNING! Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by
prolonged use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged
periods, ensure you take regular breaks.
