DO NOT overreach. Keep proper footing and
e.
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. DO NOT wear loose clothing or
f.
jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection
g.
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards.

Power Tool Use and Care
DO NOT force the power tool. Use the correct
a.
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
DO NOT use the power tool if the switch does
b.
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
c.
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.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
d.
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.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
e.
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.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
f.
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
g.
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
Recharge only with the charger specified by
a.
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.
Use power tools only with specifically
b.
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
SAFE OPERATION PRACTICES
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
c.
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.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
d.
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.
6.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a
a.
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
