GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

7.  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

1.  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.

2.  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.

3.  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.

4.  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.

5.  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.

GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

6.  Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly 

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are 
less likely to bind and are easier to control.

7.  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.

Battery tool use and care

1.  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.

2.  Use power tools only with specifically designated 

battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may 
create a risk of injury and fire.

3.  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.

4.  Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from 

the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally 
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contact eyes, 
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from 
the battery may cause irritation or burns.
