Personal Safety
•
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use a tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inat-
tention while operating power tools may result in seri-
ous personal injury.
•
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing pro-
tection used for appropriate conditions will reduce per-
sonal injuries.
•
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
•
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the tool ON.
A wrench or a key left attached to a ro -
tating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables bet-
ter control of the tool in unexpected situations.
•
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewel -
ry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from
moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
•
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
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 the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
•
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
power tools.
Such preventive safety measures re-
duce 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 pow -
er tool or these instructions to operate the power
K-45 Drain Cleaning Machine
tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of un-
trained users.
•
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool’s op er ation. 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 main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
•
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into ac -
count the working conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for operations dif-
ferent from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
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.
