SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

4

      

WARNING: 

Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow 

 the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or 

 serious injury.  

!

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term power tool  in the warnings refers to your electric (corded) power tool or 

battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

WORK AREA SAFETY

1. 

Keep work area clean and well lit.

 Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

2. 

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of 

    flammable liquids, gases or dust.

 Power tools create sparks which may ignite the 

    dust or fumes.

3. 

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

 Distractions can 

    cause you to lose control. 

4. 

Make your workshop childproof

 with padlocks and master switches. Lock 

    tools away when not in use.

5. 

MAKE SURE the work area has ample lighting

 so you can see the work and that

    there are no obstructions that will interfere with safe operation 

BEFORE 

using your 

    power tool.

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 switch is in the off-position before 

    connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

 

    Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing 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 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.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS cont.

5

 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 switch 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 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 tools 

      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

 

and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, 

      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.

 8.  

Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a 

      stable platform.

 9.  

Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead 

      to loss of control.

 ELECTRICAL SAFETY 

      

WARNING: 

BE SURE to read and understand all instructions before 

  operating this tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in 

  electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.   

!

TOOL USE AND CARE SAFETY

1. 

Double insulated tools are equipped with a 

    polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). 

    This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. 

    If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the 

    plug. If it still does not fit, contact a 

qualified 

    electrician

 to install a polarized outlet. Do not change 

    the plug in any way.

2. 

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never 

    modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter 

    plugs with grounded power tools.

 Unmodified plugs 

    and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

      

WARNING: 

Do not permit fingers to touch the terminals of plug when 

  installing or removing the plug from the outlet.

!

      

WARNING: 

Double insulation DOES NOT take the place of normal safety 

  precautions when operating this tool.
