5)Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situa- tions.
6)Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
7)If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and proper- ly used.
Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.
Power Tool Use and Care
1)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.
2)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.
3)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 pow- er tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the pow- er tool accidentally.
4)Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not al- low persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
5)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 tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
6)Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to con- trol.
7)Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the par- ticular type of power tool, taking into account the working con- ditions and the work to be per- formed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Battery Tool Use and Care
1)Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack.
Inserting battery pack into pow- er tools that have the switch on in- vites accidents.
2)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.
3)Use power tools only with spe- cifically designated battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
4)When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal ob- jects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small met- al objects that can make a con- nection from one terminal to an- other.
Shorting the battery terminals to- gether may cause burns, or a fire.
