GENERAL SAFETY RULES  
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turn-  
ing the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left at-  
tached to a rotating part of the tool may result in  
personal injury.  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS  
WARNING:  
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to  
follow all instructions listed below, may result in  
electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.  
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-  
ance at all times. Proper footing and balance en-  
ables better control of the tool in unexpected situa-  
tions. Do not use on a ladder or unstable support.  
WORK AREA  
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protec-  
tion. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or  
hearing protection must be used for appropriate con-  
ditions.  
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered  
benches and dark areas invite accidents.  
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-  
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable  
liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools may create  
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.  
TOOL USE AND CARE  
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and  
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Hold-  
ing the work by hand or against your body is un-  
stable and may lead to loss of control.  
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your  
application. The correct tool will do the job better  
and safer at the rate for which it is designed.  
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or  
off. A tool that cannot be controlled with the switch  
is dangerous and must be repaired.  
Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the  
switch in the locked or off position before mak-  
ing any adjustments, changing accessories, or  
storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures  
reduce risk of starting the tool accidentally.  
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other  
untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the  
hands of untrained users.  
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away  
while operating a power tool. Distractions can  
cause you to lose control.  
ELECTRICAL SAFETY  
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to  
carry the charger. Keep cord away from heat, oil,  
sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged  
cords immediately. Damaged cords may create a  
fire.  
A battery operated tool with integral batteries or  
a separate battery pack must be recharged only  
with the specified charger for the battery. A  
charger that may be suitable for one type of battery  
may create a risk of fire when used with another  
battery. Use battery only with charger listed.  
MODEL  
CHARGER  
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 sparks, burns, or a fire.  
HP36, FL36  
1426001  
Use battery operated tool only with specifically  
designatedbatterypack.Useofanyotherbatteries  
may create a risk of fire. Use only with battery pack  
listed.  
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp  
and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp  
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier  
to control.  
Check for misalignment or binding of moving  
parts, breakage of parts, and any other condi-  
tion that may affect the tool's operation. If dam-  
aged, have the tool serviced before using. Many  
accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.  
Use only accessories that are recommended by  
the manufacturer for your model.Accessories that  
may be suitable for one tool, may create a risk of  
injury when used on another tool.  
PERSONAL SAFETY  
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use  
common sense when operating a power tool. Do  
not use tool while tired or under the influence of  
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inat-  
tention while operating power tools may result in  
serious personal injury.  
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or  
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, cloth-  
ing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose  
clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in mov-  
ing parts.  
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in  
the locked or off position before inserting bat-  
tery pack. Carrying tools with your finger on the  
switch or inserting the battery pack into a tool with  
the switch on, invites accidents.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES  
When servicing a tool, use only identical replace-  
SERVICE  
ment parts. Follow instructions in the Mainte-  
nance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized  
parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions  
may create a risk of shock or injury.  
Tool service must be performed only by quali-  
fied repair personnel. Service or maintenance per-  
formed by unqualified personnel may result in a risk  
of injury.  
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES  
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact  
hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.  
Do not place cordless tools or their batteries  
near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explo-  
sion and possibly injury.  
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES  
Know your power tool. Read operator's manual  
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations,  
as well as the specific potential hazards related  
to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of  
electric shock, fire, or serious injury.  
WARNING:  
Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the  
presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light.  
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never  
use any cordless product in the presence of open  
flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and  
chemical. If exposed, flush with water immediately.  
WARNING:  
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,  
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities  
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth  
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples  
of these chemicals are:  
Do not charge cordless tool in a damp or wet  
location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of  
electric shock.  
• lead from lead-based paints,  
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and  
other masonry products, and  
For best results, your cordless tool should be  
charged in a location where the temperature is  
more than 50°F but less than 100°F. Do not store  
outside or in vehicles.  
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated  
lumber.  
Underextremeusageortemperatureconditions,  
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in  
contact with your skin, wash immediately with  
soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice  
or vinegar. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush  
them with clean water for at least 10 minutes,  
thenseekimmediatemedicalattention. Following  
thisrulewillreducetheriskofseriouspersonalinjury.  
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.  
CORDLESS TOOL RULES  
Cordless tools do not have to be plugged into an  
electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in  
operating condition. Be aware of possible haz-  
ards when not using your cordless tool or when  
changing accessories. Following this rule will re-  
duce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious per-  
sonal injury.  
WARNING:  
A damaged battery is subject to explosion. To avoid  
serious personal injury, properly dispose of a  
damaged battery.
