revent unintentional starting. Ensure the
s
witch is in the off-position before connecting
t
o power source and/or BATTERY pack,
p
icking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power
tools with your nger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
□ R
emove any adjusting key or wrench before
t
urning the power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool
may result in personal injury.
□ D
o not overreach. Keep proper footing and
b
alance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
□ D
ress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
j
ewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
a
way from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
□ I
f devices are provided for the connection of
d
ust extraction and collection facilities,
e
nsure these are connected and properly
u
sed. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards.
□ D
o not let familiarity gained from frequent use
o
f tools allow you to become complacent and
i
gnore tool safety principles. A careless action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a
second.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
□ Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
p
ower tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
□ D
o not use power tool if the switch does not
t
urn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
□ D
isconnect the plug from the power source
a
nd/or remove the BATTERY pack, if
d
etachable, from the power tool before
m
aking any adjustments, changing
a
ccessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
□ S
tore idle power tools out of the reach of
c
hildren and do not allow persons unfamiliar
w
ith the power tool or these instructions to
o
perate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
□ M
aintain power tools and accessories. Check
f
or misalignment or binding of moving parts,
b
reakage of parts and any other condition that
m
ay affect the power tool’s operation. If
d
amaged, have the power tool repaired before
u
se. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
□ K
eep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
□ U
se the power tool, accessories and tool bits,
e
tc. in accordance with these instructions,
t
aking into account the working conditions
a
nd the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
□ K
eep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
a
nd free from oil and grease. Slippery handles
and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe
handling and control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
□ Recharge only with the charger specified by
t
he manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of BATTERY pack may create a risk of
re when used with another BATTERY pack.
□ U
se power tools only with specifically
d
esignated BATTERY packs. Use of any other
BATTERY packs may create a risk of injury and
re.
□ W
hen BATTERY pack is not in use, keep it
a
way from other metal objects, like paper
c
lips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
m
etal objects, that can make a connection
f
rom one terminal to another. Shorting the
BATTERY terminals together may cause burns or
a re.
□ U
nder abusive conditions, liquid may be
e
jected from the BATTERY; avoid contact. If
c
ontact accidentally occurs, flush with water.
I
f liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
m
edical help. Liquid ejected from the BATTERY
may cause irritation or burns.
□ D
o not use a BATTERY pack or tool that is
d
amaged or modified. Damaged or modied
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in re, EXPLOSION or risk of injury.
□ D
o not expose a BATTERY pack or tool to fire
o
r excessive temperature. Exposure to re or
temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
□ F
ollow all charging instructions and do not
c
harge the BATTERY pack or tool outside the
t
emperature range specified in the
i
nstructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specied range may
damage the BATTERY and increase the risk of
re.
