WORK AREA SAFETY
•Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
•Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo- spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
•Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
•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.
•Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of elec- tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
•Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con- ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
•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.
•When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
•If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
•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 oper- ating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
•Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
•Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
•Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
•Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel- lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
•If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, en- sure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
•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.
•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.
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 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. |
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
•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.
•Use power tools only with specifically desig- nated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
•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 termi- nals together may cause burns or a fire.
•Under abusive conditions, liquid may be eject- ed 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 irrita- tion or burns.
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.
| platform. Holding the work by hand or against |
| your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss |
| of control. |
• | Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry |
| important information. If unreadable or missing, |
| contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free |
| replacement. |
• WARNING Some dust created by power sanding, |
| sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction |
| activities contains chemicals known to cause |
| cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. |
| Some examples of these chemicals are: |
• | lead from lead-based paint |
• | crystalline silica from bricks and cement and |
| other masonry products, and |
• | arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated |
| lumber. |
| Your risk from these exposures varies, depend- |
| ing on how often you do this type of work. To |
| reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work |
| in a well ventilated area, and work with approved |
| safety equipment, such as those dust masks that |
| are specially designed to filter out microscopic |
| particles. |
