electric shock.
3 Personal Safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
a)
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use a power tool while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A mo-
ment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b)
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing pro-
tection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c)
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energizing power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
d)
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turn-
ing the power tool on. A wrench or a key left at-
tached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
e)
ance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f)
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
ellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g)
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust col-
lection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h)
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4 Power tool use and care
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.
b)
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 re-
paired.
c)
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
remove the battery pack, if detachable, 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 and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts and any other condition that may af-
fect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g)
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, 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 hazard-
ous situation.
h)
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5 Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Specific Safety Instructions for Power
Tools
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to mains-op-
erated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
a)
Our insulation is not insulation in the sense of VDE
standards: Hold the device at the insulated handle
surfaces when you perform work where the screw can
strike hidden power lines or your own power cable.
Contact between the screw and a live power line
could energize metal parts of the tool and cause an
electric shock.
b)
Hold the tool firmly. Be prepared for torque reaction.
c)
Reaction bars are recommended in applications with
limited space and when using:
-
Inline tools used above 4 Nm.
-
Pistol tools used above 10 Nm.
-
Angle tools used above 60 Nm.
d)
NEVER rest your hand on the reaction bar when
working.
e)
Check that the suspension bail is properly secured to
the balancer.
Personal Protective Equipment
► When working with rotating parts, it is not permitted to
wear gloves.
Recommendation: Freely rotating u-GUARD pro-
tected fastening tools from APEX.
► Wear a hair net, if necessary.
