4. 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 the rate for which it was designed.
b. 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.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools.
Such preventive 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 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 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.
5. 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.
Additional safety rules for laser lights
The laser light/laser radiation used in the GMC REDEYE
®
system is Class 2 with maximum output of 1mW and a
wavelength of 650nm. These lasers do not normally present
an optical hazard, although staring at the beam may cause
flash blindness.
WARNING.
Do not stare directly at the laser beam.
A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam.
Please observe all safety rules as follows:
•
The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions.
•
Never aim the beam at any person or an object other
than the workpiece.
•
The laser beam shall not be deliberately aimed at
personnel and shall be prevented from being directed
towards the eye of a person for longer than 0.25s.
•
Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy
workpiece without reflective surfaces, i.e. wood or rough
coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective
sheet steel or the like is not suitable for laser use as
the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the
operator.
•
Do not change the laser light assembly with a different
type. Repairs must only be carried out by the laser
manufacturer or an authorised agent.
CAUTION.
Use of controls or adjustments or performance
of procedures other than those specified herein may result
in hazardous radiation exposure.
