Power tool use and care
A.
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.
B.
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.
C.
Remove the battery pack from the power
tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power
tools.
Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
D.
Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
E.
Store idle appliances indoors.
When not
in use, appliances should be stored indoors
in a dry and high or locked-up place, out of
the reach of children.
F.
Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use.
Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
G.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.

Use the power tool in accordance with
these instructions and in the manner
intended for the particular type of power
tool, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed.
Using the power tool for operations different
