12. The battery Charger gets hot during
use. The Charger’s heat can build up to
unsafe levels and create a fire hazard if it
does not receive adequate ventilation, due
to an electrical fault, or if it is used in a
hot environment. Do not place the Charger on a
flammable surface. Do not obstruct any vents on the
Charger. Especially avoid placing the Charger on
carpets and rugs; they are not only flammable, but
they also obstruct vents under the Charger. Place
the Charger on a stable, solid, nonflammable surface
(such as a stable metal workbench or concrete floor)
at least 1 foot away from all flammable objects, such
as drapes or walls. Keep a fire extinguisher and a
smoke detector in the area. Frequently monitor the
Charger and Battery Pack while charging.
Band Saw Safety Warnings
1. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring.
Cutting accessories contacting a ″live″ wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool ″live″
and could give the operator an electric shock.
2. Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
3. Do not leave power tool unattended
while it is running.
4. Before each use, move the Tension Lever to the
tightened position (making the blade taut).
5. Work slowly and carefully to avoid
snagging when cutting near corners,
sharp edges, ragged welds, etc.
6. Cutting material and the motor housing can get
very hot during operation. Stop work until tool
and blade both cool down to safe temperature.
7. Avoid unintentional starting.
Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
8. Do not lay the tool down until it has come to
a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
9. When using a handheld power tool,
maintain a firm grip on the tool with
both hands to resist starting torque.
10. Do not leave the tool unattended when the
Battery Pack is connected. Turn off the tool,
and remove the Battery Pack before leaving.
11. This product is not a toy.
Keep it out of reach of children.
12. People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields
in close proximity to heart pacemakers could cause
pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure.
13. The warnings, precautions, and instructions
discussed in this instruction manual cannot
cover all possible conditions 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.

TO THE BATTERY PACK:
Open,
Drop,
Short-circuit,

Vibration Safety
This tool vibrates during use.
Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may
cause temporary or permanent physical injury,
particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an
extended period should first be examined by a
doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to
ensure medical problems are not being caused or
worsened from use. Pregnant women or people who
have impaired blood circulation to the hand, past
hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes,
or Raynaud’s Disease should not use this tool.
If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such
as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),
seek medical advice as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces
the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.
3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the
vibration effects on the user.
4. Use tools with the lowest vibration
when there is a choice.
5. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.
6. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping
safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.
7. To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as
explained in this manual. If any abnormal
vibration occurs, stop use immediately.
