4.Battery powered tool use and care

a.Do not force the battery powered tool. Use the correct battery powered tool for your application. The correct battery powered tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b.Do not use the battery powered tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any battery powered tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is danger- ous and must be repaired.

c.Disconnect the battery pack from the battery powered tool before mak- ing any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing battery powered tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the battery powered tool accidentally.

d.Store idle battery powered tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the battery powered tool or these instruc- tions to operate the battery powered tool. Battery powered tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e.Maintain battery powered tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the battery powered tool’s operation. If damaged, have the battery powered tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained battery pow- ered 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 battery powered tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of battery powered tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the battery powered tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
