hard hat or hearing protection used for 

appropriate conditions will reduce  

personal injuries. 

c) 

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 energising the 

power tools that have the switch on  

invites accidents. 

d) 

Remove any adjusting key or wrench 

before turning the power tool on. A wrench or 

key left attached to a rotating part of a power 

tool may result in personal injury . 

e) 

Do not overreach. Keep proper  

footing and balance at all times.  

This enables better control of the  

power tool in unexpected situations. 

f) 

Dress properly. Do not wear loose 

clothing 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 facilities, ensure 

that these are connected and properly used. 

Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related 

hazards. 

h)

 When cutting metal, gloves should be worn 

before handling to prevent from getting burnt 

from hot metal. 

i)

 Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use 

of tools allow you to become complacent and 

ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can 

cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4) General Power Tool Safety Warnings 

[Power tool use and care].

a) 

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 a rate for which it was designed. 

b) 

Do not use the power tool if the switch 

does not turn it on or off. Any power tool 

that cannot be controlled with the switch is 

dangerous and must be repaired. 

c) 

Disconnect the power tool from the power 

source and/or battery pack from the power 

tool before making any adjustments, 

changing accessories, or storing power tools. 

Such preventative safety measures 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 unfamiliar 

with the power tool or these Instructions 

to operate the power tool. Power tools are 

dangerous in the hands of untrained users. 

e) 

Maintain power tools. Check for 

misalignment or binding of moving parts, 

breakage of moving 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. 

f) 

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. 

Properly 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 instructions, 

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. 

h)

 Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, 

clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery 

handles and grasping surfaces do not allow 

for safe handling and control of the tool in 

unexpected situations.

(2.6) 

5) General Power Tool Safety Warnings 

[Service]

a) 

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified 

repair person using only identical replacement 

parts. This will ensure that the safety of the 

power tool is maintained.

(2.7)

HEALTH ADVICE 

 

WARNING:

 When using this machine, 

dust particles may be produced. In some 

instances, depending on the materials 

you are working with, this dust can be 

particularly harmful. If you suspect that paint 

on the surface of material you wish to cut 

contains lead, seek professional advice. Lead 

based paints should only be removed by a 

professional and you should not attempt 

to remove it yourself. Once the dust has 

been deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth 

contact can result in the ingestion of lead. 

Exposure to even low levels of lead can 

cause irreversible brain and nervous system
