f)Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth- ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g)If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust re- lated hazards.

4)Tool use and care

a)Do not force the power tool. Use the cor- rect power tool for your application. The cor- rect 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)Disconnect the plug from the power source 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 dan- gerous in the hands of untrained users.

e)Maintain power tools. Check for misalign- ment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may af- fect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

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 instruc- tions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, 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.

5)Service

a)Have your power tool serviced by a quali- fied repair person using only identical re- placement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Specific Safety Rules

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

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, USER MUST READ AND UNDERSTAND IN- STRUCTION MANUAL.

Various dust created by power sand- ing, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construc- tion activities contains chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

Lead from lead-based paints,

Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products,

Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

The risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work.

To reduce your exposure to these chemicals work in a well ventilated area and use approved safety equip- ment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out micro- scopic particles.
