Safety precautions
for double-insulated tools
Read all instructions
1. Keep Work Area Clean. Cluttered areas and benches
invite injuries.
2. Consider Work Area Environment.
Don’t expose
power tools to rain. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet
locations. Keep work area well lit. Do not use tool in pres-
ence of flammable liquids or gases.
3. Guard Against Electric Shock. Prevent body contact
with grounded surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators,
ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
4. Keep Children Away. Do not let visitors contact tool or
extension cord. All visitors should be kept away from work
area.
5. Store Idle Tools. When not in use, tools should be
stored in dry, and high or locked-up place – out of reach of
children.
6. Don’t Force Tool. It will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was intended.
7. Use Right Tool. Don’t force small tool or attachment to
do the job of a heavy-duty tool. Don’t use tool for purpose
not intended – for example – d’ont use circular saw for cut-
ting tree limbs or logs.
8. Dress Properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
They can be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and
non-skid footwear are recommended when working out-
doors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
9. Use Safety Glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cut-
ting operation is dusty.
10. Don’t Abuse Cord. Never carry tool by cord or yank it
to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and
sharp edges.
11. Secure Work. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It’s
safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to oper-
ate tool.
12. Don’t Overreach / Maintain Control. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times.
13. Maintain Tools With Care. Keep tools sharp and clean
for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords
periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized
service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and
replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from
oil and grease.
14. Disconnect Tools. When not in use, before servicing
and when changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cut-
ters.
15. Remove Adjusting Keys and Wrenches. Form habit of
checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from tool before turning it on.
16. Avoid Unintentional Starting. Don’t carry tool with fin-
ger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
16A. Extension Cords. Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following
table shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the
heavler the cord.

17. Outdoor Use Extension Cords. When tool is used out-
doors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors
and so marked.
18. Stay Alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common
sense. Do not operate tool when you are tired.
19. 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 per-
form its intended function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mount-
ing, and any other conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless
otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual.
Have defective switches replaced by authorized service cen-
ter. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.
20. Only use accessories and attachments which are given
in the operating instructions or in the respective catalogue.
The use of accessories or insert tools or attachments other
than those specified in the operating instructions can result
in personal injury to you.
21.
Only have repairs carried out by recognized electrical
specialists. This electric tool/machine complies with respec-
tive safety regulations. Repairs may only be carried out by
an electrical specialist otherwise an accident hazard for the
operator can exist.
22.
Wear ear protectors when using for extended periods.
23. Always use any supplied side handle, and keep it tightly
secured; use both hands during operation. Keep proper
footing and balance and don’t overreach. Firm control of the
tool is necessary should the tool bind.
24. Hold Tool by Handle(s) Provided. Do not touch unin-
sulated parts of tool when drilling. Exposed metal surfaces
may be made live if the tool drills into electrical wiring.
25. Replacement Parts. When servicing use only identical
replacement parts.
26. Polarized Plugs. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician
to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way.
Save these instructions.
Warning!
The following fundamental safety precautions must always
be observed when using electric tools/machines as protec-
tion against an electric shock, the risk of injury and a fire
hazard. Please read and take note of these precautions
before you use the tool/machine. Please read and keep
these safety precautions in a safe place!
