Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose-tting clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose-tting clothing, jewellery and long hair can get caught in moving parts.
If dust extraction and dust collection equipment is available, this should be connected and used correctly. The use
of such devices can reduce the risk of dust-related problems.
8.5 Use and care
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for the planned work. The tool does the job better and safer
when used at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the tool if it cannot be switched on and off with the power switch. Power tools that cannot be controlled
with the power switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
Pull out the plug and/or remove the battery before making any adjustments, changing accessories or putting the
power tool away. These safety precautions reduce the risk of accidently starting the tool.
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
persons.
Keep the power tool properly maintained. Check that moving parts are properly adjusted and do not jam, and
that no parts are incorrectly tted 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 the power tool, accessories and bits etc., in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the actual
working conditions and the work that is to be done. It can be dangerous to use power tools for purposes other than
those they are intended to be used for.
8.6 Using and maintaining battery-powered tools
The battery must only be charged with the charger recommended by the manufacturer. A charger intended for one
type of battery can result in a re risk if used with another type of battery.
Only use power tools with the specied batteries. The use of other batteries can cause accidents or a re.
When the battery is not being used it must be kept away from other metal objects such as paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws and other metal objects that can short circuit the terminals. Short circuiting the battery terminals can
cause burns or a re.
Failure to handle the battery carefully can cause uid to leak from the battery. Avoid contact with battery uid.
Rinse well with plenty of water if you come into contact with battery uid. Seek medical attention if you get battery
uid in your eyes. Fluid leaking from the battery can cause irritation or burns.
