When using electric tools, basic safety
precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock and personal injury, including the
following.
Read all these instructions before operating this product
and save these instructions.
For safe operations:
1.
Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas and benches
invite injuries.
2.
Consider work area environment. Do not expose
power tools to rain. Do not use power tools in
damp or wet locations. Keep work area well lit.
Do not use power tools where there is risk to
cause fire or explosion.
3.
Guard against electric shock. Avoid body contact
with earthed or grounded surfaces. (e.g. pipes,
radiators, ranges, refrigerators).
4.
Keep children away. Do not let visitors touch the
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 a dry, high or locked up place, out
of reach of children.
6.
Do not force the tool. It will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was intended.
7.
Use the right tool. Do not force small tools or
attachments to do the job of a heavy duty tool.
Do not use tools for purposes not intended; for
example, do not use circular saw to cut tree
limbs or logs.
8.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery, they can be caught in moving parts.
Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recom-
mended when working outdoors. Wear protecting
hair covering to contain long hair.
9.
Use eye protection. Also use face or dust mask
if the cutting operation is dusty.
10.
Connect dust extraction equipment.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities ensure these
are connected and properly used.
11.
Do not abuse the cord. Never carry the tool by
the cord or yank it to disconnect it from the
receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil and
sharp edges.
12.
Secure work. Use clamps or a vice to hold the
work. It is safer than using your hand and it frees
both hands to operate tool.
13.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
14.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp
and clean for better and safer performance. Follow
instructions for lubrication and changing acces-
sories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if dam-
aged, have it repaired by authorized service center.
Inspect extension cords periodically and replace,
if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free
from oil and grease.
15.
Disconnect tools. When not in use, before serv-
icing, and when changing accessories such as
blades, bits and cutters.
16.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form the
habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the tool before turning
it on.
17.
Avoid unintentional starting. Do not carry a
plugged-in tool with a finger on the switch. Ensure
switch is off when plugging in.
18.
Use outdoor extension leads. When tool is used
outdoors, use only extension cords intended for
outdoor use.
19.
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use com-
mon sense. Do not operate tool when you are
tired.
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 func-
tion. 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 properly repaired or replaced by an
authorized service center unless otherwise
indicated in this handling instructions. Have
defective switches replaced by an authorized
service center. Do not use the tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off.
