the suitable power tool you will work better and with more safety in the specified
performance range.
b. Do not use any power tool with a defective switch. An electrical tool that can
no longer be switched on and off is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Unplug the device from the power outlet and/or remove the battery before
making device settings, changing accessories, or putting the device away. This
precautionary measure prevents the device from starting up unintentionally.
d. When not in use, store power tools out of the reach of children. Do not allow
persons to use the device who are unfamiliar with the device or who have not
read these instructions. Power tools are dangerous when used by inexperienced
persons.

properly and do not seize, if parts are broken or are damaged, then device
function is impaired. Have the damaged parts repaired before using the tool.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges seize less and are easier to control.
g. Use power tools, accessories, insertion tools etc. according to these instructions,
and in the manner prescribed for this particular device type. Give due
consideration to work conditions and the task that will be executed. Using power
tools for applications other than their intended use can lead to dangerous situations.
