and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from
frequent use of tools allow you to
become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless
action can cause severe injury
within a fraction of a second.
4) Power tool use and care
a) 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
speed for which it was designed.
b) 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.
c) Do not use the machine if the key
switch is not able to start it or stop
it regularly. A machine that cannot be
operated by the key switch is dangerous
and must be repaired at a service centre.
d) Remove the ignition key before making
any adjustments, changing accessories
or storing the power tool. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
e) 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 machine. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
f) Maintain power tools and accessories.
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.
g) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely
to bind and are easier to control.
h) 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.
i) Keep handles and grasping
surfaces dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Slippery handles
and grasping surfaces do not allow
for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.

Battery tool use and care
a) 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,
electric shock, overheating or corrosive
liquid to leak from the battery. when
used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools exclusively with
specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs
may create a risk of injury and fire.
c) When the battery pack is not in
use, keep it away from other metal
objects such as paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects that may create a
connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals
together can cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid
may be ejected from the battery:
avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If the liquid
contacts eyes, seek medical help
immediately. Fluid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation and burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that
is damaged or modified. Damaged
or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting
in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool
to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above
130 °C may cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions
and do not recharge the battery
pack or tool outside the specified
temperature range. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside
the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
h) Do not recharge the battery pack
in places with vapours, flammable
substances or in excessively damp
rooms. If it is not possible to avoid
a humid environment, use a power
outlet protected by a differential circuit
breaker (RCD-Residual Current Device)
to reduce the risk of electric shock.
i) Do not store the charger cable
within the reach of children.
