Electric tool use and maintenance.
a) Do not force the electric tool. Use an electric tool which is suitable for the work being carried out. The
correct electric tool carries out the work better and safer at the intended rate of feed.
b) Do not use the electric tool if the switch is broken. All electric tools which cannot be controlled using the
switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out adjustments, changing attachments or storing the
electric tool. These preventative measures decrease the risk of starting the electric tool by accident.
d) Store electric tools which are not being used out of the reach of children and do not let anyone who
is not acquainted with the electric tool or these instructions use it. Electric tools are dangerous in the
hands of inexperienced users.
e) Electric tool maintenance. Check to see if anything is wrongly set, if moving parts jam, if parts have
broken or if something else can influence the operation of the electric tool. If something is damaged it
must be repaired before use. Many accidents happen because of poor maintenance.
f) Keep the tools clean and sharp. Cutting tools with sharp blades which are properly maintained are less
likely to jam and are easier to check.
g) For electric tools, attachments etc. follow the instructions carefully. Only use the particular tool
in a correct manner for its specific purpose taking the working conditions and kind of work into
consideration. The use of the electric tool for work other than it was intended for can result in a
dangerous situation.
Service
a) Let qualified staff, using only original spare parts, carry out service and repairs. This guarantees that the
safety of the electric tool is maintained.
