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 reduce 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 power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained 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 operation. 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 maintained 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 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.

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.

Safety Rules for Shears

Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tools may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

Always unplug the tool from the power source before changing accessories or making any adjustments. Accidental start up may occur causing serious personal injury.

Always wear safety goggles or eye protection, leather gloves and safety shoes when using this tool. Shears produce sharp metal strips or edges that if contacted can lacerate skin easily.

Wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.

Use thick cushioned gloves and limit the exposure time by taking frequent rest periods. Vibration caused by shearing

action may be harmful to your hands and arms.

Do not run the tool while carrying it at your side. The cutters could become entangled with clothing and injury may result.

Always use the supplied hand guard. The guard helps keep the sharp metal strips or pieces away from contacting your hand.

Secure the material being cut. Never hold small pieces in your hand or across your legs. Do not touch cutters or reach below work or remove cut material during use of the shear. Shears that cut metal will cut skin easily.

Protect the cord from sharp metal edges or strips while shearing metals. Position the cord clear of rotating bit. Sharp metal edges can pierce the jacket of the cord, which can be a shock hazard.

Do not cut material greater than the rated capacity of the shear. Cutting material greater than the capacity of the shear may cause damage to the cutting edges of the shear.

Do not use dull or damaged cutters or accessories not intended for this shear. Replace worn cutters. Sharp cutters minimize stalling.
