Use And Care Manual

Page 4
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on
the switch or energizing power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
• 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.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
• 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.
• If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of
a dust collection device can reduce dust-
related hazards.
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.
• 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.
• 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.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
• 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. 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 bind and are
easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc., in accordance with these
instructions and in the manner intended
for the particular type of power tool, taking
into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power
tool for operations other than those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by
a qualied repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
GENERAL SAFETY RULE
DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS
• Wear ear protectors with hammer drills.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the
tool. Loss of control can cause personal
injury.
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting
accessory contacting a ”live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live”
and could give the operator an electric shock.
