injury. Always keep your hands away from
moving (rotating) parts.
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 cloth-
ing 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 devices are provided for the connec-
tion of dust extraction and collection fa-
cilities, ensure these are connected and
properly used.
Use of these devices can reduce dust re-
lated hazards.
4.) Power tool use and care
a)
Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was de-
signed.
b)
Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off correctly.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be re-
paired.
c)
Disconnect the plug from the power
source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power
tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool acciden-
tally.
d)
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar with the power tool or these in-
structions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e)
Maintain power tools carefully. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage or damage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power
tools operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired by a qualified expert
before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly main-
tained power tools.
f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g)
Secure the workpiece.
Use clamps or a vice to hold the workpiece.
This is safer than holding it with your hand,
and also it frees both hands to operate the
equipment.
h)
Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc., in accordance with these in-
structions and in the manner specified
for the particular type of power tool, tak-
ing into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a haz-
ardous situation. All unauthorized modifica-
tions to the power tool are prohibited for
safety reasons
5.) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qual-
ified repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
