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 re-
chargeable battery before you
change the device’s settings,
change accessory parts or put
away the power tool.
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 al-
low 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)
Look after the power tool and
application tool carefully. 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, taking
into account the working condi-
tions and the work to be per-
formed.
Use of the power tool for op
-
erations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grip surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and
grease.
Slippery handles and grip
surfaces do not permit safe operation
and control over the power tool in un
-
expected situations.
