PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing,
and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
Prevent accidental starting. Ensure switch is in the “OFF” position before
connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that
have the switch
“ON”
invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool “ON”.
A wrench or a key
that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective
equipment such as dusk mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
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.
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.
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.
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.
