Use personal protective equipment.
2.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
3.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or bat-
tery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energising power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
4.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating
part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
5.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables bet-
ter control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-
6.
ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing,
and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
7.
If devices are provided for the connec-
tion of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
1.
Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect power tool for your application. 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
2.
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled 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 adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety mea-
sures 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.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-
5.
ment or binding of moving parts, break-
age 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.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
6.
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, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for oper-
ations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
Battery tool use and care
1.
Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is suit-
able for one type of battery pack may create
a risk of fire when used with another battery
pack.
Use power tools only with specifically
2.
designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
3.
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.
4.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, addition-
ally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritation or burns.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
5.
damaged or modified. Damaged or mod-
ified batteries may exhibit unpredictable
behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
6.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to
fire or excessive temperature. Exposure
to fire or temperature above 130 °C may
cause explosion.
7.
Follow all charging instructions and do
not charge the battery pack or tool out-
side the temperature range specified in
the instructions. Charging improperly or
at temperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the
risk of fire.
