Power tool use and care
16. 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.
17. 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.
18. 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.
19. Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren 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.
20. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
21. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
22. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions and in
the manner intended for the particular type of
power tool, taking into account the working con-
ditions and the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
23. 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.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

1. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Con-
tact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
2. Wear hearing protection during extended period
of operation.
3. Handle the bits very carefully.
4. Check the bit carefully for cracks or damage
before operation.
Replace cracked or damaged bit immediately.
5. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all
nails from the workpiece before operation.
6. Hold the tool firmly.
7. Keep hands away from rotating parts.
8. Make sure the bit is not contacting the work-
piece before the switch is turned on.
9. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let
it run for a while.
Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indi-
cate improperly installed bit.
10. Be careful of the bit rotating direction and the
feed direction.
11. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
12. Always switch off and wait for the bit to come to
a complete stop before removing the tool from
workpiece.
13. Do not touch the bit immediately after operation;
it may be extremely hot and could burn your
skin.
14. Always lead the power supply cord away from
the tool towards the rear.
15. Do not smear the tool base carelessly with thin-
ner, gasoline, oil or the like.
They may cause cracks in the tool base.
16. Draw attention to the need to use cutters of the
correct shank diameter and which are suitable
for the speed of the tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

ENB054-1
CAUTION:
• Use only the wrenches provided with the tool.
Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone and tighten
the collet nut securely with the two wrenches.
To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in
reverse.

OPERATION

Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without the
bit making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait
until the bit attains full speed. Move the tool forward over
the workpiece surface, keeping the tool base flush and
advancing smoothly until the cutting is complete.
When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should
be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction. (Fig. 4)
