WARNING: Carefully read the entire man-
ual before attempting to use this tool. Make
sure to pay special attention to the safety rules
and indications, plus all the warnings and cau-
tions of this manual.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING: Read and understand all in-
structions. Failure to follow all indications list-
ed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WORK AREA
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Clut-
tered benches and dark areas may cause acci-
dents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive at-
mospheres, such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust. Some power tools
create sparks which may provoke fire.
• Keep away observers, children and visitors
while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Double insulation eliminates the need for the
three wire grounded power cord and ground-
ed power supply system.
• Avoid the body contact with grounded sur-
faces such as pipes, radiators and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is grounded.
• Don't expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions. The precense of water into power tools
will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse of the power cord. Never use
the power cord to carry the tool and do not
pull the plug off the outlet. Keep the cable
away of heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outside, use
8
an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or
"W". These cords are rated for outdoor use
and reduce the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Don't use the tool if you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of unattention while operating pow-
er tools may cause a serious personal injury.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away of moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
• Avoid an accidental starting. Be sure that the
switch is OFF before plugging in. Carrying tools
with the finger on the switch or plug in the
tool switch in ON may cause accidents.
• Remove the adjusting keys or wrenches be-
fore turning the tool on. A wrench or a key
that is left close to a rotating part of the tool
may provoke a personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. Proper footing and bal-
ance enables better control of the tools on un-
expected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye pro-
tection. Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection must be used for ap-
propriate conditions.
• Before connecting the tool to a power source
(receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the volt-
age supplied is the same as that one specified
on the nameplate of the tool. To use a not
specified voltage may cause a serious injury to
the user as well as damage the tool.
TOOL USE AND CARE
• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
tool for the application. The correct tool will
do the job better and more safely at the rate
that it was designed to work at.
• Use clamps or other practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a estable plat-
form. Holding the work by hand or against
your body is unestable and may cause loss of
control.
