Important Safety Information
Do not operate in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dusts. Power tools create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
Stay alert, be aware of what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Use safety gear and always wear eye protection.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and loose
fitting gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
Avoid unintended starts. Remove the battery when the tool is not in use.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents. Do not manipulate the switch.

This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
