Safety
5
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 battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
b)
Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs.
Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c)
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal
objects that can make a connection from one
terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a fire.
d)
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
6) SERVICE
a)
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
