General Power Tool Safety

Warnings

WARNING Read all safety

warnings and instructions.

Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions may result in electric

shock, re and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and

instructions for future reference.

The term ″power tool″ in the

warnings refers to your battery-

operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety1.

Keep work area clean and well lit. a.

Cluttered or dark areas invite acci-

dents.

Do not operate power tools in ex-b.

plosive atmospheres, such as in

the presence of ammable liquids,

gases or dust. Power tools create

sparks which may ignite the dust or

fumes.

Keep children and bystanders c.

away while operating a power

tool. Distractions can cause you to

lose control.

Electrical safety2.

Do not expose power tools to rain

or wet conditions. Water entering

a power tool will increase the risk of

electric shock.

SKU 67046 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 3

Personal safety3.

Stay alert, watch what you are a.

doing and use common sense

when operating a power tool. Do

not use a power tool while you

are tired or under the inuence of

drugs, alcohol or medication. A

moment of inattention while operat-

ing power tools may result in serious

personal injury.

Use personal protective equip-b.

ment. Always wear eye protec-

tion. Safety 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. c.

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 nger

on the switch or energizing power

tools that have the switch on invites

accidents.

Do not overreach. Keep proper d.

footing and balance at all times.

This enables better control of the

power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear e.

loose clothing or jewelry. Keep

your hair, clothing and gloves

away from moving parts. Loose

clothes, jewelry or long hair can be

caught in moving parts.

If devices are provided for the f.

connection of dust extraction and

collection facilities, ensure these

are connected and properly used.

Use of these devices can reduce

dust-related hazards.

Only use safety equipment that g.

has been approved by an appro-

priate standards agency. Unap-

proved safety equipment may not

provide adequate protection. Eye

protection must be ANSI-approved

and breathing protection must be

NIOSH-approved for the specic

hazards in the work area.

Power tool use and care4.

Do not force the power tool. Use a.

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 b.

switch does not turn it on and off.

Any power tool that cannot be con-

trolled with the switch is dangerous

and must be repaired.

Disconnect the battery pack from c.

the power tool before making any

adjustments, changing accesso-

ries, or storing power tools. Such

preventive safety measures reduce

the risk of starting the power tool ac-

cidentally.

Store idle power tools out of the d.

reach of children and do not allow

persons unfamiliar with the power

tool or these instructions to oper-

ate the power tool. Power tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained

users.

Maintain power tools. Check for e.

misalignment or binding of mov-

ing parts, breakage of parts and

any other condition that may af-

fect the power tool’s operation. If

damaged, have the power tool re-

paired before use. Many accidents

are caused by poorly maintained

power tools.

SKU 67046 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 4

Use the power tool and acces-f.

sories 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.

Battery tool use and care5.

Recharge only with the charger a.

specied by the manufacturer. A

charger that is suitable for one type

of battery pack may create a risk of

re when used with another battery

pack.

Use power tools only with speci-b.

cally designated battery packs.

Use of any other battery packs may

create a risk of injury and re.

When battery pack is not in use, c.

keep it away from other metal ob-

jects, like paper clips, coins, keys,

nails, screws or other small metal

objects, that can make a connec-

tion from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals to-

gether may cause burns or a re.

Under abusive conditions, liquid d.

may be ejected from the battery;

avoid contact. If contact acciden-

tally occurs, ush with water. If

liquid contacts eyes, additionally

seek medical help. Liquid ejected

from the battery may cause irritation

or burns.

Service6.

Have your power tool serviced by a.

a qualied repair person using

only identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the

power tool is maintained.

Sander Safety Warnings

Maintain labels and nameplates on 1.

the tool. These carry important safety

information. If unreadable or miss-

ing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a

replacement.

Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare 2.

to begin work before turning on the

tool.

Do not lay the tool down until it has 3.

come to a complete stop. Moving

parts can grab the surface and pull

the tool out of your control.

When using a handheld power tool, 4.



both hands to resist starting torque.

Do not leave the tool unattended 5.

when it is attached to a battery pack.

Turn off the tool, and disconnect it

from its battery pack outlet before

leaving.

6. The battery charger gets

hot during use. The

charger’s heat can build

up to unsafe levels and



receive adequate ventilation, due to

mable surface. Do not obstruct any

vents on the charger. Especially

avoid placing the charger on car-

pets and rugs; they are not only

ammable, but they also obstruct

vents under the charger.

Place the charger on a stable, solid,

WARNING: Some dust created by 9.

power sanding, sawing, grinding, drill-

ing, and other construction activities,

contains chemicals known [to the

State of California] to cause cancer,

birth defects or other reproductive

harm. Some examples of these

chemicals are:

cally treated lumber

Your risk from these exposures var-

ies, 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 specially



particles. (California Health & Safety

Code § 25249.5, et seq.)

The warnings, precautions, and in-10.

structions discussed in this instruction

manual cannot cover all possible con-

ditions and situations that may occur.

It must be understood by the operator

that common sense and caution are

factors which cannot be built into this

product, but must be supplied by the

operator.
