GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY RULES
TOOL USE AND CARE
• Secure the workpiece. Use clamp or other practical way to hold the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
workpiece by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• Do not force the power tool. The tool will perform the job better and safer at the feed rate for which it is
designed. Forcing the tool could possibly damage the tool and may result in personal injury.
• Use the correct power tool for the job. Don't force the tool or attachment to do a job for which it is not
designed.
• 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 or replaced by an authorized service center.
• Turn power tool off, and disconnect the plug from the power source and/or battery pack from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing the accessories, or storing the tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of an accidental start up which may cause personal injury.
• Store idle tool out of reach of children and other inexperienced persons. It is dangerous in the
hand of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools with care. Check for proper alignment and binding of moving parts, component breaks,
and any other conditions that may affect the tool's operation. A guard or any other part that is damaged must be
properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center to avoid risk of personal injury.
• Use recommended accessories. Using accessories and attachments not recommended by the manufacturer
or intended for use on this type tool may cause damage to the tool or result in personal injury to the user. Consult the
operator's manual for recommended accessories.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Feed the workpiece in the correct direction and speed. Feed the workpiece into a blade, cutter, or
abrasive surface against the direction of the cutting tool's direction of rotation only. Incorrectly feeding the workpiece
in the same direction may cause the workpiece to be thrown out at high speed.
• Never leave the tool running unattended, turn the power off. Do not leave the tool until it comes to
a complete stop.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
• Ensure the trigger switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting the
battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
• 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 battery tools only with specified battery pack. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
• avoid storing battery pack in a container with other metal objects such as nails, coins,
clips, keys, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Always protect the battery terminals when battery pack is not being used. Connecting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected 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 irritation or burns.
• Battery tools do not need to be plugged into an electrical outlet, therefore, they are always in
operation condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery tool or when changing accessories.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or personal injury.
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.
• Service your power tool periodically. When cleaning a tool, be careful not to disassemble any portion of the
tool since internal wires may be misplaced or pinched.
