3) Personal Safety
a) Remain alert at all times, watch what you are doing and
always proceed with caution when using power tools. Do
not use power tools when tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. One moment of carelessness
when using the power tool can lead to serious injury.
b) Always wear protective equipment and safety glasses.
Wearing personal protective equipment such as a dust mask,
non-slip safety shoes, safety helmet or ear protectors,
depending on the type and application of the power tool,
reduces the risk of injuries.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Verify the power tool is
switched off before connecting it to the mains and/ or
connecting the battery, picking it up, or carrying it. Carrying
the power tool with your finger on the ON/OFF switch or
connecting switched on equipment to the mains can result in
accidents.
d) Remove any setting tools or spanners before you switch
the power tool on. Leaving a tool or spanner attached to a
rotating part of a equipment can lead to injury.
e) Avoid unnatural postures. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This will ensure having better control over
the power tool in unforeseen circumstances.
f) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves clear of
moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can
become trapped in moving parts.
g) If vacuum dust extraction and collection equipments are
fitted do not forget to check that they are properly
connected and correctly used. Using of a dust extraction
system reduces the hazard presented by dust.
4) Using and handling the equipment
a) Do not overload the equipment. Always use a power tool
intended for the task. By using the right power tool for the job
you will work more safely and achieve a better result.
b) Do not use a power tool with a defective switch. Power
tools that can no longer be switched on and off are dangerous
and must be repaired.
c) Unplug from the mains and/or remove the battery before
adjusting the equipment, changing accessories, or setting
the equipment down. This precaution is intended to prevent
you from unintentionally starting the power tool.
d) Always be sure to keep power tools out of reach of
children when not in use. Do not let anyone use the power
tool if he or she is not familiar with it or has not read the
instructions and advice. Power tools are dangerous when
used by inexperienced individuals.
e) Maintain the power tool with care. Check that moving
parts are working properly and move freely. Check for any
parts that are broken or damaged enough to detrimentally
affect the function of the power tool. Have damaged parts
repaired before using the equipment. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools clean and sharp. Carefully maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam and
are easier to control.
g) Use the electrical power tool, accessories, inserted tools
etc. in accordance with these instructions and advice, and
the stipulations drawn up for this particular type of
equipment. When doing so consider the working conditions
and the application. The use of electrical power tools for
purposes other than those intended can lead to dangerous
situations.
5) Using and handling the battery operated tool
a) Always charge the rechargeable batteries in chargers
recommended by the manufacturer.
Remaining risks
Even when using the power tool properly, remaining risks
may exist. The following hazards may occur based on the
construction of the equipment:
- lung damage when not wearing a suitable protective
mask.
- hearing damage when not wearing suitable ear
protection.
- mage to health due to handarm vibration when using the
equipment for extended periods, and not properly operated
and maintained. A charger suitable for a specific type of
rechargeable batteries may cause fires when used with
different rechargeable batteries.
b) Always use the power tool with the specified
rechargeable batteries. Using different rechargeable
batteries can result in injuries and fire hazards.
c) Keep the rechargeable battery not in use away from
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects which may result in bridging of the
contacts. A short circuit between the battery contacts can
result in burns or fire.
d) Incorrect use can result in battery leaks. Avoid
contact with the liquid. Rinse with water in the event of
accidental contact. If the liquid enters the eye, also
seek medical help. Leaking battery fluid can result in kin
irritations or burns.
6) Service
Always have the power tool repaired by qualified
professionals using only OEM spare parts. This will
ensure the safety of the power tool. Have defective power
cords replaced by the manufacturer or similarly qualified
and authorised persons.
