3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a)
Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and
use
common
sense
when
operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication.
A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
b)
Use personal protective equipment.
Always
wear
eye
protection.
Protective equipment such as safety
glasses, dust mask, protective gloves or
hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c)
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the 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 the
power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
d)
Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on.
A
wrench or a key left attached 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 jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
g)
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.
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 on and off.
Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c)
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.
d)
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.
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 likely 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 conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for
operations
different
from
those
intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a)
Recharge only with the charger
specified by the manufacturer
. A
charger that is suitable for one type of
