4 Power tool use and care
a
Do not force the power tool.
Use the correct power tool for
your application.
The correct
power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
b
Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and
off.
Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c
Disconnect the plug from the
power source before making any
adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power
tools.
Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d
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.
e
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.
f
Keep cutting tools sharp and
clean.
Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and
are easier to control.
g
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.
5 Service
a
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.
b If the power cable is damaged, it
must – in order to prevent risks –
be replaced by the manufacturer
or their customer service
representative.
Safety notes for hammering
a
Wear ear defenders.
The effects
of noise may lead to a loss of
hearing.
b
Use the additional handles
supplied with the unit.
Loss of
control may lead to injuries.
c
Hold the device by the insulated
handle surfaces when carrying
out tasks during which it is
possible that the tool will come
across hidden power cables or
