GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Read and understand all
instructions. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below, may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Work area

1 Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
2 Do not operate tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3 Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

4 A battery operated tool with integral
batteries or a separate battery pack must
be recharged only with the specified charger
for the battery. A charger that may be suitable
for one type of battery may create a risk of fire
or electric shock when used with another battery.
5 Use battery operated tool only with
specifically designated battery pack. Use of
any other batteries may create a risk of fire.

Personal safety

6 Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a tool.
Do not use while tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating tools may result in
serious personal injury.
7 Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Contain long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery,
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
8 Avoid accidental starting. Ensure switch
is in the off position before plugging in or
inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your
finger on the switch or energising tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
9 Remove adjusting keys or wrenches
before turning the tool on. A wrench or key
that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool
may result in personal injury.
10 Do not overreach. Stand on both feet an
keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables better control
of the tool in unexpected situations.
11 Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for
appropriate conditions.
12 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.
Tool use and care
13 Use clamps or other practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body is unstable and may lead to
loss of control.
14 Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for
your application. The correct tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed.
15 Do not use tool if switch does not turn it
on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
16 Disconnect battery pack from tool before
making any
accessories, or storing the tool. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.
17 Store idle tools out of reach of children
and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
18 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 sparks, burns, or a fire.
19 Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting
tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
20 Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tools
operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
21 Use only
recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one
tool, may become hazardous when used on
another tool.
22 Tool service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel
could result in a risk of injury.
23 When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the Maintenance section of this manual. Use
of unauthorised parts or failure to follow
Maintenance instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury.
