2.4 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.

2.5 Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.

2.6 Safety Instructions for abrasive
cutting-off operations
2.6.1 Cut-off machine safety warnings
a) The guard provided with the tool must be
securely attached to the power tool and
positioned for maximum safety, so the least
amount of wheel is exposed towards the
operator. Position yourself and bystanders
away from the plane of the rotating wheel.
The guard helps to protect operator from broken
wheel fragments and accidental contact with
wheel.
b) Use only diamond cut-off wheels for your
power tool.
Just because an accessory can be attached
to your power tool, it does not assure safe
operation.
c) The rated speed of the accessory must be at
least equal to the maximum speed marked
on the power tool.
Accessories running faster than their rated
speed can break and fly apart.
d) Wheels must be used only for recommended
applications. For example: do not grind with
the side of cut-off wheel.
Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for
peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these
wheels may cause them to shatter.
e) Always use undamaged wheel flanges that
are of correct diameter for your selected
wheel.
Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus
reducing the possibility of wheel breakage.
f) The outside diameter and the thickness of
your accessory must be within the capacity
rating of your power tool.
Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be
adequately guarded or controlled.
g) The arbour size of wheels and flanges must
properly fit the spindle of the power tool.
Wheels and flanges with arbour holes that do
not match the mounting hardware of the power
tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively
and may cause loss of control.
h) Do not use damaged wheels. Before each
use, inspect the wheels for chips and
cracks. If power tool or wheel is dropped,
inspect for damage or install an undamaged
wheel. After inspecting and installing the
wheel, position yourself and bystanders
away from the plane of the rotating wheel
and run the power tool at maximum no load
speed for one minute.
Damaged wheels will normally break apart
during this test time.
