19. 

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. 

20. 

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. 

21. 

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. 

22. 

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

 Properly 

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges 
are less likely to bind and are easier to control. 

23. 

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. 

Battery tool use and care 

24. 

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. 

25. 

Use power tools only with specifically 
designated battery packs.

 Use of any other 

battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire. 

26. 

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 a fire. 

27. 

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. 

Service 

28. 

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. 

29. 

Follow instruction for lubricating and 
changing accessories. 

30. 

Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and 
grease.

 Loss of control can cause personal injury. 

2. 

Hold power tool by insulated gripping 
surfaces, when performing an operation 
where the cutting accessory  may contact 
hidden wiring.

"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the 
power tool "live" and could give the operator an 
electric shock. 

3. 

Hold power tool by insulated gripping 
surfaces, when performing an operation 
where the fastener may contact hidden wiring.

 

Fasteners contacting a "live" wire may make 
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and 
could give the operator an electric shock. 

4. 

Always be sure you have a firm footing. 
Be sure no one is below when using the tool 
in high locations. 

5. 

Hold the tool firmly.
