Check that the switch is in the “OFF” position
before connecting to the power supply. Switch to
“OFF” immediately after completion of the task.
Keep the mains cable away from any moving parts
or accessories.
Never cover the ventilation slots in the tool.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings
and all instructions.
Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term “power tool”
in all of the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
This appliance is not intended for
use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
Recommendations for the use of a residual
current device
with a rated residual current of
30mA or less.

Before you connect the charger to the mains supply
make sure that the data on the rating plate are
identical to the mains data.
If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced
by an electrician or a power tool repairer in order to
avoid a hazard.
Always use an approved extension lead suitable for
the power input of this tool. Before use, inspect the
extension lead for signs of damage, wear and ageing.
Replace the extension lead if damaged or defective.
When using an extension lead on a reel, always
unwind the lead completely. Use of an extension lead
not suitable for the power input of the tool or which is
damaged or defective may result in a risk of fire and
electric shock.
This tool is double insulated; therefore no
earth wire is required.
1)
Work area safety
a)
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered
and dark areas invite accidents.
b)
Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c)
Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
2)
Electrical safety
a)
Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b)
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c)
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions.
Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
e)
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f)
If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
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.
Personal protective equipment
such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,
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 energising 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 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 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 it 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 tools 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 and in the manner intended for
the particular type of power tool, 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)
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.
