pack, picking up or carrying the
tool.
Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or ener-
gising 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 prop-
erly 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 more
safely 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 dan-
gerous 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, chang-
ing 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 instruc-
tions 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 mov-
ing parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may
affect the power tool’s opera-
tion. 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 condi-
tions and the work to be per-
formed.
Use of the power tool for
operations different from those
intended could result in a hazard-
ous 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.
