power tools may result in serious per
-
sonal injury.
•
Use safety equipment.
Always wear
eye protection. Safety equipment such
as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce per
-
sonal injuries.
• Avoid unintentional operation. Make
sure that the power tool is switched
off before you connect it to the mains
supply and/or the battery and when
-
ever you pick up or carry the tool.
When carrying the tool with your finger on
the on/off switch or connecting the tool to
the mains supply with the switch in ‘ON’
position, this may result in accidents.
•
Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the tool on. A wrench
or a key that is left attached to
a rotat-
ing part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times.
This
enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
•
Dress properly.
Do not wear loose cloth-
ing 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 connec-
tion of dust extraction and collection
facilities ensure that these are con-
nected and properly used.
Use of these
devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care

does not turn it on and off.
Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

the battery before adjusting a tool,
changing accessories or putting the

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
