3. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such

as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes or hearing protection used for appropriate

conditions will reduce personal injuries.

4. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before

plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in

power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

5. 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.

6. 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.

7. 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.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

1. 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 which it was designed.

2. 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.

3. Disconnect the battery before making any adjustments, changing

accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures

reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

4. Store idle 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.

5. 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 maintained power tools.

6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Poorly maintained cutting tools with

sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

7. Use the power tool and accessories 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 different from intended

could result in a hazardous situation.
