Switching On And Off - Berner BACSS-18V Bedienungsanleitung Und Sicherheitshinweise

f) 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.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) 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.
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 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.
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
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) 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.
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.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc., in accordance with these instructions
taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Recharge only with the charger specifi ed by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fi re
when used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifi cally
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fi re.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects
that can make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a fi re.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery, avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, fl ush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
6) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Additional Safety Instructions for
Reciprocating Saws
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting
tool may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the
operator.
• ALWAYS wear a dust mask. Exposure to dust
particles can cause breathing diffi culty and
possible injury.
• NEVER switch on the tool when the saw blade
is jammed in the workpiece or in contact with the
material.
• Keep hands away from moving parts. Never
place your hands near the cutting area.
• Use extra caution when cutting overhead and
pay particular attention to overhead wires
which may be hidden from view. Anticipate the
path of falling branches and debris ahead of time.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of
time. Vibration caused by the operating action of
this tool may cause permanent injury to fi ngers,
hands, and arms. Use gloves to provide extra
cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit daily
time of use.

SWITCHING ON AND OFF

• After switching off, never attempt to stop the saw
blade with your fi ngers.
• Never put the saw down on a table or work bench
unless switched off. The saw blade will keep
running briefl y after the tool has been switched off.
