Specific Safety Rules - Makita 3707 Manuel D'instruction

16. 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.
17. 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.
18. Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories,
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.
19. Store idle tools out of reach of children and
other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
20. 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.
21. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, and any other
condition that may affect the tool's operation.
If damaged, have the tool serviced before
using. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence
to trimmer safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely
or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal
injury.
1. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
2. Wear hearing protection during extended
period of operation.
3. Handle the bits very carefully.

Service
23. Tool service must be performed only by
qualified
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel
Such could result in a risk of injury.
24. When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance
instructions may create a risk of electric shock or
injury.
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1
shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number,
the heavier the cord.
