e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times.
This enables bet-
ter control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-
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.
g) If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facili-
ties, ensure these are connected and
properly used.
Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) 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 de-
signed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) 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 meas-
ures 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 unfa-
miliar with the power tool or these in-
structions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-
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.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Prop-
erly maintained 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 instruc-
tions, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations differ-
ent from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a quali-
fied repair person using only identical re-
placement parts.
This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Machine-specific
Safety Warnings
f
Wear hearing protection.
Exposure to noise
can cause hearing loss.
f
Always use the auxiliary handle supplied
with the machine.
Loss of control can cause
personal injury.
f
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call the
local utility company for assistance.
Contact
with electric lines can lead to fire and electric
shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explo-
sion. Penetrating a water line causes property
damage or may cause an electric shock.
f
Hold the power tool only by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing an oper-
ation where the cutting tool may contact hid-
den wiring or its own power cord.
Contact
with a “live” wire will also make exposed met-
al parts of the power tool “live” and shock the
operator.
f
When working with the machine, always
hold it firmly with both hands and provide
for a secure stance.
The power tool is guided
more secure with both hands.
