Electrical Safety

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

   

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

personal Safety

1. 

Stay alert, watch what you are doing 
and use common 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 moment of inattention while operating power 
tools may result in serious personal injury.

2. 

Use personal protective equipment.  
Always wear eye protection.

  Protective 

equipment such as 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 Trigger is in the off-position before 
connecting to power source, picking up or 
carrying the tool.

   

Carrying power tools with your finger on 

the Trigger

 or energizing power tools that 

have the Trigger 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 better control 

of the power tool in unexpected situations.

6. 

Dress properly.  Do not wear loose 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.

7. 

If devices are provided for the connection of 
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure 
these are connected and properly used.

  

Use of 

dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

8. 

Only use safety equipment that has been 
approved by an appropriate standards agency.

  

Unapproved safety equipment may not provide 
adequate protection.  Eye protection must be 
ANSI-approved and breathing protection 
must be NIOSH-approved for the 
specific hazards in the work area.

power Tool Use and care

1. 

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.

2. 

Do not use the power tool if the Trigger  
does not turn it on and off.

  

Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the 
Trigger is dangerous and must be repaired.

3. 

Disconnect 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.

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.

5. 

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.

6. 

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

  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 operations different from those 

intended could result in a hazardous situation.
