7) 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 applica-
tion.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
) Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be con-
trolled 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.
) 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 specifi-
cally 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.

SPECIFIC SAFE-
TY RULES
1) Hold power tools by insulated grip-
ping surfaces when performing an
operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden wiring.
Contact with a “live” wire will make ex-
posed metal parts of the tool “live” and
shock the operator.
