Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear
loose-fitting clothing or jewellery. Keep
your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or
long hair can fasten in moving parts.

If dust extraction equipment is available,
this should be connected and used
correctly. The use of such devices can
reduce the risk of dust-related problems.
USING AND LOOKING AFTER
POWER TOOLS
•
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
power 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 power tools properly maintained.
Check that moving parts are properly
adjusted and move freely, and that no
parts are incorrectly fitted 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.
•
Keep handles and grips clean, dry and free
from oil and grease. Greasy handles and
grips make it difficult to hold the tool.
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 fire risk if
used with another type of battery.
•
Only use power tools with the specified
batteries. The use of other batteries can
cause accidents or a fire.
•
When the battery is not in use keep it
away from metal objects such as
paperclips, coins, keys, nails, screws and
other small metal objects that can short
circuit the terminals. Short circuiting the
battery terminals can cause burns or a
fire.
•
Failure to handle the battery carefully can
cause fluid to leak from the battery. Avoid
contact with battery fluid. Rinse well with
plenty of water if you come into contact
with battery fluid. Seek medical attention
if you get battery fluid in your eyes. Fluid
leaking from the battery can cause
irritation or burns.
SERVICE
•
The power tool must only be serviced by
qualified personnel using identical spare
parts. This will ensure that the power tool
remains safe to use.
•
Never attempt to repair damaged
batteries. Batteries should only be
serviced by an authorised service centre or
other qualified personnel. (For battery
operation only).
