Store power tools out of the reach of
children when not in use. Never allow
children, or anyone who is unfamiliar with
the power tool and these instructions, to
use the tool. Power tools are dangerous if
used by inexperienced people.
•
Keep the power tool properly maintained.
Check that moving parts are properly
adjusted and do not jam, and that no parts
are incorrectly fitted or damaged. Check for
other factors that could affect functionality.
If the power tool is damaged, it must be
repaired before being used again. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam
and are easier to control.
•
Use power tools, accessories, etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking
into account actual working conditions and
the work that is to be done. Pay attention
to the actual working conditions and the
job to be done. It can be dangerous to use
power tools for purposes other than those
they are intended to be used for.

Only use a battery charger recommended
by the manufacturer.

Using a battery charger intended for a
different type of battery can result in a fire

other metal objects that can short circuit
the terminals.

Short circuiting the battery terminals can
cause burns or a fire.

Batteries can leak if they are not handled or
used properly. Do not touch fluid leaking

fresh water. If you get battery fluid in your
eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of
water and seek medical attention.

Leaking battery fluid can cause skin
irritation or burn injuries.
