• Do not anchor the tool lanyard to anything on
your body. Anchor to a rigid structure that can
withstand the forces of a droppedtool.
• Make sure the lanyard is properly secure at each
end prior touse.
• Inspect tool and lanyard before each use for
damage and proper function (including fabric
and stitching). Do not use if damaged or not
functioningproperly.
• Do not alter the lanyard attachment point or use in
a manner other than as instructed in thismanual.
• Only attach tool to a lanyard with a locking
carabiner. Do not attach by looping or knotting the
lanyard. Do not use rope orcord.

working in high voltage areas. Some lanyards
areconductive.

could cause injury or loss ofbalance.
• Do not carry the tool by the attachment point, the
battery strap or thelanyard.

attachment kit. NEVER modify tools to create
attachmentpoints.
• Only transfer the tool between hands while
properly balanced in a stableorientation.
• Do not attach lanyards to tool in a way that
keeps guards, switches or lock‑offs from
operatingproperly.

• Keep lanyard away from the cutting area of
thetool.
• Do not use lanyards or attachment devices to get
additional leverage from thetool.

accesories and attachments where a dropped
object won't cause a hazard below you. Consult
your Authority Having Jurisdication (AHJ) or site
