Tool Use and Care
Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the
workplace to a stable platform, Holding the work by hand or against
your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The
correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such
preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
Store tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean..
Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If
damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for
your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may
become hazardous when used on another tool.
Service
Tool service must be performed only by a qualified repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could
result in a risk of injury.
