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
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
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.
