4) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[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 a rate
for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on or off. Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the power tool from the power
source and/or battery pack from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventative 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 moving 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.
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) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c) 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 fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If

liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire
or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
Note: The temperature „130 °C" can be
replaced by the temperature „265 °F".
g) Follow all charging instructions and
do not charge the battery pack or tool
outside the temperature range specified in
the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
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 service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be performed
by the manufacturer or authorized service
providers.
HEALTH ADVICE
WARNING: If you suspect that paint on surfaces
in your home contains lead seek professional
advice. Lead based paints should only be
removed by a professional and you should not
attempt to remove it yourself.
Once the dust has been deposited on surfaces,
hand to mouth contact can result in the ingestion
of lead. Exposure to even low levels of lead can
cause irreversible brain and nervous system
damage. The young and unborn children are
particularly vulnerable.
WARNING: Some wood and wood type
products, especially MDF (Medium Density
Fibreboard), can produce dust that may be
hazardous to your health. We recommend the
use of an approved face mask with replaceable
filters when using this machine, in addition to
using the dust extraction facility.
