3. Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat
or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions 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 rotating 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 unexpected 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 connection of dust extraction and
collection 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 rules 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
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 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 dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. 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.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5. Use and handling of the cordless electrical
power tool
a) Charge a rechargeable battery using only the charger recommended
by the manufacturer. Chargers are often designed for a particular type
of rechargeable battery unit. There is the danger of fire if other types of
rechargeable battery units are used.
b) Only the rechargeable battery units supplied are to be used with an
electrical power tool. The use of other rechargeable battery units may
lead to the danger of injury or fire.
c) When they are not being used, store rechargeable battery units
away from paperclips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal
objects that could cause the contacts to be bridged. Short-circuiting
the contacts of a rechargeable battery unit may result in heat damage
or fire.
d) Fluids may leak out of rechargeable battery units if they are misused.
If this happens, avoid contact with the fluid. If contact occurs, flush
the affected area with water. Seek additional medical help if any of
the fluid gets into your eyes. Escaping battery fluid may cause skin
irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a damaged or modified battery. Damaged or modified
batteries may behave unexpectedly and cause fires, explosions or pose
a risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery to fire or excessively high temperatures.
Fire or temperatures in excess of 130°C (265°F) can cause an
explosion.
g) Follow all instructions regarding charging and never charge the
battery or the cordless tool outside of the temperature range given
in the operating instructions. Incorrect charging or charging outside of
the permissible temperature range can destroy the battery and increase
the risk of fire.
CAUTION! RISK OF EXPLOSION!
Never charge non-rechargeable batteries.
Protect the rechargeable battery from heat
(for example, from continuous exposure to sunlight), fire, water
and moisture. There is a risk of explosion.

6. 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.
b) Never try to repair damaged batteries. Batteries should only be
maintained by the manufacturer or an approved customer service
centre.
