Work area safety
1.
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
2.
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.
3.
Keep by-standers, children, and visitors away
while operating a power tool.
Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
Tool use and care
1.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body is
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
2.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your
application.
The correct tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
3.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or
off.
A tool that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
4.
Disconnect battery pack from tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool.
Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
5.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other
untrained persons.
Tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
6.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from 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 sparks, burns, or a fire.
7.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp
and clean.
Properly maintained tools with sharp
cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
8.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that
may affect the tool’s operation.
If damaged, have
the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
9.
Use only accessories that are recommended by
Electrical safety
1.
A battery-operated tool with integral batteries or
a separate battery pack must be recharged only
with the specified charger for the battery.
A charger
that may be suitable for one type of battery may create
a risk of fire when used with another battery.
2.
Use this battery-operated tool only with its
specifically designated battery pack.
The use of
any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
Personal safety
1.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use tool while tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
2.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair.
Clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
3.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in
the locked or off position before inserting battery
pack.
Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or
inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch
on invites accidents.
4.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before
turning the tool on.
A wrench or a key that is left
attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in
personal injury.
