•
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.
•
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.
•
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.
2.4
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 does not turn it
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 instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
•
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
•
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
•
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.
•
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.
2.5
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
•
Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
•
Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.
•
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or fire.
•
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
•
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
•
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature
above 130°C (265 °F) may cause explosion.
•
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
2.6
SERVICE
•
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.
•
Never service damaged battery packs. Service of
battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.

TACKER SAFETY WARNINGS
•
Always assume that the tool contains fasteners.
Careless handling of the tacker can result in unexpected
firing of fasteners and personal injury.
•
Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone
nearby.
Unexpected triggering will discharge the
fastener causing an injury.
•
Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly
against the workpiece.
If the tool is not in contact with
the workpiece, the fastener may be deflected away from
your target.
•
Disconnect the tool from the power source when the
fastener jams in the tool
While removing a jammed
fastener, the tacker may be accidentally activated if it is
plugged in.
•
Use caution while removing a jammed fastener.
The
mechanism may be under compression and the fastener
may be forcefully discharged while attempting to free a
jammed condition.
•
Do not use this tacker for fastening electrical cables.
It
is not designed for electric cable installation and may
damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing
electric shock or fire hazards.
•
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the nails may contact
