WARNING:
For your safety, this tool is
equipped with lock-off lever which prevents the
tool from unintended starting. NEVER use the tool
if it runs when you simply pull the switch trigger
without pressing the lock-off lever. Return the
tool to our authorized service center for proper
repairs BEFORE further usage.
WARNING:
NEVER tape down or defeat pur-
pose and function of lock-off lever.
CAUTION:
Before installing the battery car-
tridge into the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to
the "OFF" position when released.
NOTICE:
Do not pull the switch trigger hard with-
out pressing the lock-off lever. This can cause
switch breakage.
