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 tools 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 Ensure the switch is in the off position
before inserting battery pack.
Inserting the battery pack into power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
b 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.
c 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.
d 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.
e 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.
