d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. 

A

wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury. 

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 

This

enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. 

f)

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. 

Loose clothes, jewellery or

long hair can be caught in moving parts. 

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection

facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. 

Use of these

devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

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 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. 

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 tools
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 supply cord is damaged,

it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its

service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
