d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
g. 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.
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 rate 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. Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tools operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly

Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g. 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.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts.
This will make sure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
