away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
16.If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce
Power tool use and care
17.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.
18.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.
19.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.
20.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.
21.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.
22.Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
23.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.
Battery tool use and care
24.Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
25.Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
26.When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
27.Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
Service
28.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.
29.Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories.
30.Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

3.Rags, cloth, cord, string and the like should never be left around the work area.
4.Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from the workpiece before operation.
5.Use only sharp blades. Handle the blades very carefully.
6.Be sure the blade installation bolts are securely tightened before operation.
7.Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
8.Keep hands away from rotating parts.
9.Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indicate poor installation or a poorly balanced blade.
10.Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.
11.Wait until the blade attains full speed before cutting.
12.Always switch off and wait for the blades to come to a complete stop before any adjusting.
13.Never stick your finger into the chip chute. Chute may jam when cutting damp wood. Clean out chips with a stick.
