serious personal injury.
b)
Use personal protective equip-
ment. Always wear eye protec-
tion.
Protective equipment such as
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce per-
sonal injuries.
c)
Avoid starting the device un-
intentionally. Ensure that the
power tool is switched off be-
fore you connect it to the power
supply and/or before you con-
nect the rechargeable battery,
or before picking it up or car-
rying it.
Carrying power tools with
your fi nger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
d)
Remove any adjusting key or
wrench before turning the pow-
er tool on.
A wrench or a key left at-
tached 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 dust extraction and collection
devices can be installed, make
sure that these are connected
and used correctly.
Using a dust
collector can reduce hazards caused
by dust.
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)
Remove the plug from the
wall socket and/or remove the
rechargeable battery before
you change the settings of the
device, change accessory parts
or put away the device.
Such pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the power tool accidentaIly.
d)
Store idle power tools out of
the reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instruc-
tions 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
Iikely to bind and are easier to control.
g)
Use the power tool, accessories
and tool bits etc. in accordance
with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working
