SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
14.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
15.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- related hazards.
22.Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particu- lar 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 re- sult in a hazardous situation.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
WORK AREA SAFETY
1.Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2.Do not operate power tools in ex- plosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liq- uids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3.Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
4.Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
5.Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and re- frigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
6.Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
7.Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
8.When operating a power tool out- doors, use an extension cord suit- able for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
9.Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious per- sonal injury.
10.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equip- ment such as dust mask,
11.Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the
12.Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left at- tached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
13.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
16.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.
17.Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be con- trolled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
18.Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, chang- ing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
19.Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not al- low persons unfamiliar with the power tools or these instructions to operate power tools. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
20.Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of mov- ing parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may af- fect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many acci- dents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
21.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.Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
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 spe- cifically 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 ter- minals together may cause burns or a fire.
27.Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery, avoid contact. If contact acciden- tally 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.
