4) Use and care of the power tool
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was de-
signed.
b) 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 re-
paired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar with the power tool or these in-
structions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tool's op-
eration. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Use the power tool, accessories and ap-
plication tools etc. in accordance with
these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of power tools for op-
erations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qual-
ified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety Warnings for Fine-spray
Systems

Workplace safety

Keep area clean well lit and free of paint or
solvent containers, rags, and other flamma-
ble materials. Spontaneous combustion
may occur. Fire extinguisher equipment shall
be present and working at all times.
Provide for good ventilation in the spraying
area and for sufficient fresh air in the com-
plete room. Evaporating inflammable sol-
vents create an explosive environment.
Do not use materials with a flashpoint be-
low 21 °C for spraying and cleaning. Use
water-based materials, non-volatile hydro-
carbons or similar materials. Fast evaporat-
ing solvents create an explosive environ-
ment.
Do not spray in the vicininty of ignition
sources, such as static electricity sparks,
open flames, pilot lights, hot objects, en-
gines/motors, cigarettes and sparks from
plugging in or unplugging power cords or
operating switches. Such spark sources can
ignite the spraying vicinity/environment.
Do not spray any liquid of unknown hazard
potential. Unknown materials can create
hazardous conditions.

Personal safety

Wear additional protective equipment such
as appropriate protective gloves and pro-
tective masks or respirators when spraying
or handling chemicals. Wearing protective
equipment for the appropriate conditions re-
duces the exposure to hazardous substances.
