u
Do not immerse the appliance in water.

no userserviceable parts inside.
Personal safety
u
Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense when
operating an appliance. Do not use
an appliance while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating an appliance may
result in serious personal injury.
u
Where required, use personal
protective equipment. Protective
equipment such as eye protection,
dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
u
Prevent unintentional starting. Make
sure that the switch is in the off-
position before connecting to a power
source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the appliance. Carrying
appliances with your finger on the
switch or energising appliances that
have the switch on invites accidents.
u
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the appliance in
unexpected situations.
u
Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
Appliance use and care
u
Before use, check the appliance for
damaged or defective parts. Check for
breakage of parts, damage to switches
and any other conditions that may
affect its operation.
u
Do not use the appliance if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any
appliance that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
u
Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the appliance before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing appliances. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the appliance accidentally.
u
Where applicable, keep cutting tools
sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
u
Do not use the appliance if any part is
damaged or defective.
u
Have any damaged or defective parts
repaired or replaced by an authorised
repair agent.
u
Never attempt to remove or replace
any parts other than those specified in
this manual.
