Power tool use and care
•
Do not force the power tool.
Use the correct power tool for
your application. The correct power tool will do a better and safer job
if used for the function it was designed for.
•
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.
•
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the
power tool.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
•
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.
•
Maintain power tools with care.
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.
•
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
•
Use the power tool, accessories, 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
•
Ensure the switch is in the "off" position before
inserting the battery pack.
Inserting the battery pack into
power tools that have the switch "on" invites accidents.
•
When recharging, use only the charger that is
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.
•
Use only specifically designated battery packs with
power tools.
The use of any other battery pack may create a risk
of injury or fire.
•
When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from objects that can create a connection between
the terminals, such as paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects.
Short-circuiting the
battery terminals may cause burns or a fire.
•
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs,
flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
Service
•
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.
•
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement
parts.
Follow the instructions in the Maintenance section of this
manual. The use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance
instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
