WARNING
k) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
l) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
m) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or key
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
n) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
o) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
p) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
connections and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power Tool Use and Care
q) 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.
r) 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.
s) 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.
t) 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.
u) 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.
v) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
w) Use the power tool, accessories and 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 be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
x) 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.
Safety Warnings
y) Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this
power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
z) Operations for which the power tool was not designed may create a hazard and cause
personal injury.
aa) Do not use accessories which are not designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not
assure safe operation.
