4) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
5) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
6) If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used.
Use of these devices can reduce dust
related hazards.
Power Tool Use and Care
1) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
2) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
3) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
4) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
5) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tools operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
6) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
7) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions and in the manner intended
for the particular type of power tool, taking
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.
Battery Tool Use and Care
1) Ensure the switch is in the off position
before inserting battery pack.
Inserting battery pack into power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
2) 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.
3) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
4) 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.
5) Under abusive conditions, liquid may
be ejected from 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.
Service
1) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of power tool
is maintained.
