5. HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION
20. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS:
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts, free running of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be repaired properly or replaced by an authorized service centre unless
otherwise indicated in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by an authorized
service facility. Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
21. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE:
And in working order.
22. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE:
Keep tools sharp and clean for the best and safest performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. All extension cables must be checked
at regular intervals and replaced if damaged. Always keep the hand grips on the tool clean, dry
and free of oil and grease.
23. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES:
Consult the owners manual for recommended accessories.
Follow the instructions that accompany the accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause
hazards.
24. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES:
Form a habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before turning it on.
25. SECURE WORK:
Use clamps or a vice to hold work. This frees both hands to operate the tool.
26. DO NOT OVERREACH:
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
27. USE RIGHT TOOL:
Do not force the tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
28. DO NOT FORCE TOOL:
It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
29. DIRECTION OF FEED:
Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of the
blade or cutter only.
30. WHEN DRILLING OR SCREWING INTO WALLS AND FLOORS:
Always make sure there is no danger
of hitting any hidden power cables, water or gas pipes in the wall/floor.
31. HAVE YOUR TOOL REPAIRED BY A QUALIFIED PERSON:
This electric tool is in accordance with the
relevant safety requirements. Repairs should only be carried out by qualified persons using
original spare parts, otherwise this may result in considerable danger to the user.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Residual Risk. Although the safety instructions and operating manuals for our tools contain
extensive instructions on safe working with power tools, every power tool involves a certain
residual risk which can not be completely excluded by safety mechanisms. Power tools must
therefore always be operated with caution!
