�.� Power tool use and care
�)
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.
�)
Do not use the power tool if the switch cannot be turned on and
off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
�)
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.
�)
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instruc-
tions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
�)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
Safety Warnings
�.� Personal Safety
�)
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.
�)
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
�)
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off-position before connecting to the 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.
�)
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.
