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

or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged,

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

A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.

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

controlled.
The arbor size of wheels, sanding drums or
any other accessory must properly fit the

hardware of the power tool will run out of
balance, vibrate excessively and may cause
loss of control.
Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding drums,
cutters or other accessories must be fully
inserted into the collet or chuck.
If the
mandrel is insufficiently held and/or the
overhang of the wheel is too long, the mounted
wheel may become loose and be ejected at
high velocity.
