Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or stor-
ing power tools.
Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
►
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.
►
Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other con-
dition 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.
►
The appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience or knowledge, unless
they have been supervised or instructed
in the use of the appliance by a person re-
sponsible for their safety.
►
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
►
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 oper-
ations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
►
Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry
and clean and free from oil or grease.
►
Slippery handles and gripping surfaces
prevent safe handling of the tool and do
not allow reliable control in unforeseen sit-
uations.
