SAFETY INFORMATION.

When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
Do not attempt to plug in or remove appliances from the power supply with wet hands.
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply ensure the voltage corresponds to the voltage limits on the rating plate.
Only use DOMU Brands recommended attachments or those specifically designed for use with the unit.
Do not operate the appliance if it has been submerged in water or any other liquid to prevent against electric shock, damage and potential injury.
Do not use the appliance if the power cord is damaged. Seek advice and repairs from a qualified electrician or service personnel.
Only a qualified electrician or service engineer should perform repairs to electrical equipment. Improper repairs may place the user at serious risk. Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst connected to the mains power supply. Before attempting any cleaning or user maintenance, the appliance must be switched off and disconnected from the power supply.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION FOR THE CHARGER.

• Tools with Lithium-ion batteries may only be charged with the specifically designed Lithium-ion battery charger purchased with this tool.
• Do not attempt to charge the battery with any charger other than the one supplied as this is potentially dangerous. Before using the charger, read all instructions, labels and cautionary markings on the charger.
• Do not use the charger for any purpose other than that for which it is intended. Do not use the charger to charge any device other than the power tool it was sold with.
• Do not use an extension cord unless absolutely necessary. The use of an improper extension cord could result in fire or electric shock.
• Never attempt to connect two chargers together.
• Use the battery charger indoors only. Make sure that the charger cable is positioned where it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress. Keep the lead away from operating machinery.

IMPORTANT PRODUCT CARE INFORMATION.

Ensure you have read all of the safety information in the previous pages before using the tools.
Safety devices and circuitry for this power tool are located in the battery pack of this tool. The battery pack is a vital component, not just for the power source, but also for the full safety control for both the charging and tools operation. If the power tool does become immersed in water or any other liquid,
is subject to a severe drop or does not operate within the guidelines of this Instruction manual, discontinue use immediately and have it checked.
The battery is an integral component
of this power tool and is fitted with thermal safety devices. Running the tool at close to maximum load, or continual resetting of the overload, will cause the battery to overheat. When a pre-set cell temperature is detected, the battery will automatically stop operating and will not restart until it has cooled to a safe level. Should this occur ,
DO NOT force-cool the pack by placing in a freezer or similar. Allow the battery time to cool naturally. Avoid overloading the tool during operation. The tool will stop automatically if overloaded. Overload may occur for a number of reasons, including when the tool is pushed too hard, or when using an attachment greater than what is specified.
NOTE: The battery is more susceptible to overloading when at the lower end of the charge.
The low voltage cut-out feature will operate when the voltage drops below a pre-set value. When this occurs, the tool will stop operating automatically.
NOTE: Attempting to restart the tool in this condition, without recharging the battery will lead to the tool restarting and stopping again after only a few seconds of operation.
These safety devices have been fitted for the safety, reliability and life of the tools.

WHEN TO CHARGE THE BATTERY.

The battery should be fully charged before use.
After it has been used and charged a few times, the battery should be charged for 3-5 hours using the charger.
The battery can be recharged at any time during use, provided the pack has not overheated.
If the battery pack starts to cut out due to low voltage, or tasks previously undertaken can no longer be performed, time during use, provided the pack has not overheated.
If the battery starts to cut out due to low voltage, or tasks previously undertaken can no longer be performed, it is recommended to stop using the tool and recharge the battery.
For storage, it is recommended to recharge the battery between 50% and 75% charge.
