clothing or jewelry. keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.

a) 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.

does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) Maintain power tools. check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.

Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.

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.

a) 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.
b) use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
c) 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.

Specific Safety Rules
• hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
• use auxiliary handle(s) if supplied with the
tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
• use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the work piece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
• When not in use, place tool on its side on
a stable surface where it will not cause a
tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with
large battery packs will stand upright but may
be easily knocked over.
• keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away
from air vents. Air vents often cover moving
parts in which these items can be caught.
• hold tool firmly with two hands, one
hand on the handle, and the other gripping
the bottom around the battery area. Use
auxiliary handle if provided. Loss of control
can cause personal injury.
