Power tool use and care
Do not force the power tool. Always use the correct tool for the job. The tool does the job better and
safer when used at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the tool if it cannot be switched on and off using the power switch. Power tools that
cannot be controlled with the power switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
Always disconnect the power cord from the mains power before making any adjustments, changing
accessories or putting the power tool away. These safety precautions reduce the risk of accidently
starting the power tool.
Store power tools out of the reach of children when not in use. Never allow children, or anyone who
is unfamiliar with the power tool and these instructions, to use the tool. Power tools are dangerous
if used by inexperienced people.
Keep the power tool properly maintained. Make sure that moving parts are properly adjusted and
do not jam and that no parts are incorrectly fitted or damaged. Check for other factors that could
affect the operation of the power tool. If the power tool is damaged, it must be repaired before
being used again. 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 jam and are easier to control.
Use power tools, accessories, bits, etc., in accordance with these instructions, taking into account
actual working conditions and the work that is to be done. It can be dangerous to use power tools
for purposes other than those intended.
