Additional Safety Information - DeWalt DCE591 Instruction Manual

r 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.
5) Battery Tool Use and Care
a ) Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
b ) Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
c ) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
d ) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) Service
a ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Safety Instructions for Material
Dispensers
• Before using any material, be sure to read, understand,
and follow the instructions of the manufacturer of that
material. Read the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet)
supplied by the manufacturer of the material and all
writing on the material and the container thoroughly.
Material may not dispense properly if it is not at the proper
temperature. Material may pose a health hazard without
adequate ventilation.

DANGER: Do not use to dispense any flammable
or explosive material, any material that contains
n
petroleum distillate(s), or any material that cannot be
used safely near sparks or near electric motors. Do not
use this tool, or any other power tool, if any phrases
such as "Flammable", "Explosive", "Keep away from
heat, spark, and flame", "Keep away from heat, spark,
r
open flames and any ignition source", "Petroleum
Distillate", "Distillates (Petroleum)", "Disconnect
electric motors", etc., appear. This product contains an
electric motor. All electric motors generate sparks and
may ignite vapors from materials.
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where tool may contact
hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will also
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock
the operator.
• Do not fix trigger in the "ON" position by any means
(rubber band, tape, etc.). This may result in an unsafe
operating condition.
• Keep hands out of the plunger and plunger rod area of the
caulk/adhesive dispenser. Fingers can be crushed between
the tube holder and the plunger.
• When operating the caulk/adhesive dispenser overhead,
do not have plunger rod in the path of your eyes or head.
Plunger rod may slip back in direction of user. Always wear
eye protection when using the caulk/adhesive dispenser.
• Always work in properly ventilated area and wear
appropriate respiratory protection if necessary. Fumes
from some caulks and adhesives can be noxious.
• Turn unit off and disconnect battery pack before installing
and removing accessories, before adjusting or when
making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the
manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool may be hazardous when used on
another tool. The use of improper accessories may cause
risk of injury to persons.
• Rotate speed control dial to the OFF position when not in
use to avoid inadvertent release of material.
Take care not to get caulk or adhesive on battery
•
contact points.
• Always read and follow all manufacturer's instructions
regarding caulk or adhesive. Failure to do so may result in
personal injury.
• Do not use for food preparation.
• Do not operate without the pistons attached. This will
damage the cartridge and may be hazardous.

Additional Safety Information


WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, 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:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, 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 designed to filter out microscopic particles.
