3. Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operat-
ing a power tool. Do not use a power
tool while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medica-
tion . A moment of inattention while op-
erating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear safety goggles. Protective
equipment such as a dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate condi-
tions will reduce personal injuries.
c) 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
finger on the switch or energising power
tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a ro-
tating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times . This enables
better control of the power tool in unex-
pected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair
and clothing away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the con-
nection of dust extraction and col-
lection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
h) Do not allow yourself to get lulled into
a false sense of security, and do not
ignore the safety regulations for power
tools, even if you are familiar with the
power tool after repeated use.
A careless action can cause severe
injury within a fraction of a second.

4 . Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your applica-
tion . The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which
it was designed.
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 repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery
pack, if detachable, 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.
d) 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 danger-
ous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and acces-
sories. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool's opera-
tion. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
