POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
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.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool to operate the power tool.
DO NOT use the power tool if the Switch does not turn on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the Switch is dangerous and must be repaired by a qualied technician.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories or
storing power tools.
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.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to loud noise can cause hearing loss. Wear steel-toed boots during use.
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold power tools by gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Keep clear of moving parts.
Unplug before inspecting, removing or installing chisel or performing any service.
Pull on chisel after installation and before use; chisel may move but MUST NOT slide out.
DO NOT operate this tool if you have back, neck, wrist injuries or other conditions that will be
aggravated by the forces that this tool exerts upon the operator.
Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
DO NOT lay the tool down until it has come to a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the surface and
pull the tool out of your control.
When using a hand-held power tool, maintain a rm grip on the tool with both hands to resist starting
DO NOT leave the tool unattended when it is plugged into an electrical outlet. Turn off the tool and unplug
it from its electrical outlet before leaving.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the work-piece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Tool service must be performed only by qualied repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualied personnel could result in a risk of injury. For example: internal wires may be misplaced or
pinched, safety guard return springs may be improperly mounted.
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. Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may
damage plastic parts.
DO NOT use dull or damaged bits and accessories. Dull or damaged bits have a greater tendency to bind
in the work-piece.
