User manual
Read all these instructions before
attempting to operate this product and save
these instructions.
For safe operation
•
Keep the work area clean. Cluttered
areas and benches invite injuries.
•
Consider work area environment.
Do not expose power tools to rain and
do not use power tools in damp or wet
locations. Keep the work area well lit.
Do not use power tool where there is a
risk of causing fire or explosion.
•
Guard against electric shock. Avoid
body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces (e.g. pipes, radiators, ranges,
refrigerators).
•
Keep children away. Do not let visitors
touch the tool. All visitors should be kept
away from work area.
•
Store idle tools. When not in use, tools
should be stored in a dry, high or locked
place, out of reach of children.
•
Do not force the tool. It will do the job
better and more safely at the rate for
which it was intended.
•
Use the right tool. Do not force small
tools or attachments to do the job of a
heavy duty tool. Do not use tools for
purposes not intended: for example,
do not use a circular saw to cut tree
limbs or logs.
•
Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery as they can be
caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves
and non-skid footwear are recommended
when working outdoors. Make sure long
hair is kept out of the way.
•
Use safety glasses. Use a face or dust
mask as well if the cutting operation
is dusty.
•
Secure your work. Use clamps or a vice
to hold your work. It is safer than using
your hand and it frees both hands to
operate the tool.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times.
•
Maintain tools with care. Keep tools
sharp and clean for better and safer
performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories.
