16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL
STARTING. Make sure switch is in off position
before inserting battery.
17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult
the owner's manual for recommended acces-
sories. The use of improper accessories may
cause risk of injury to persons.
18. NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could
occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool
is unintentionally contacted.
19. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use
of the tool, a guard or other part that is dam-
aged should be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function - check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts, mounting, and any other condi-
tions that may affect its operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced.
20. DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a blade
or cutter against the direction of rotation of the
blade or cutter only.
21. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED.
TURN POWER OFF. Do not leave tool until it
comes to a complete stop.
22. REPLACEMENT PARTS. When servicing, use
only identical replacement parts.
Battery tool use and care
1.
Ensure the switch is in the off position before
inserting battery cartridge. Inserting the battery
cartridge into power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
2.
Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery cartridge may create a risk of
fire when used with another battery cartridge.
3.
Use power tools only with specifically desig-
nated battery cartridges. Use of any other bat-
tery cartridges may create a risk of injury and fire.
4.
When battery cartridge 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 termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fire.
5.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact acci-
dentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid con-
tacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
6.
Disconnect battery cartridge from tool or place
the switch in the locked or off position before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing the tool. Such preventive safety mea-
sures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
7.
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.
8.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam-
aged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in
fire, explosion or risk of injury.
9.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or tem-
perature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
10. Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the instruc-
tions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
Specific safety rules
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence
to portable cut-off safety rules. If you use this tool
unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious per-
sonal injury.
1.
Wear hearing protection during extended
period of operation.
2.
Use only wheels having a maximum operat-
ing speed at least as high as "No Load RPM"
marked on the tool's nameplate. Use only
fiberglass-reinforced cut-off wheels.
3.
Check the cut-off wheel carefully for cracks or
damage before operation. Replace cracked or
damaged wheel immediately. Run the tool (with
guard) at no load for about a minute, holding
tool away from others. If wheel is flawed, it will
likely separate during this test.
4.
Secure the cut-off wheel carefully.
5.
Use only flanges specified for this tool.
6.
Be careful not to damage the spindle, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt.
Damage to these parts could result in wheel
breakage.
7.
Do not operate the tool without guards in
place. Check the wheel guard for proper clos-
ing before each use. Do not operate the tool if
wheel guard does not move freely and close
instantly. Never clamp or tie the wheel guard
into the open position.
Hold the handle firmly.
8.
9.
Keep hands away from rotating parts.
10. Make sure the cut-off wheel is not contacting
the workpiece before the switch is turned on.
11.
Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced wheel.
12. Watch out for flying sparks when operating.
They can cause injury or ignite combustible
materials.
13. Remove material or debris from the area
that might be ignited by sparks. Be sure that
others are not in the path of the sparks. Keep
a proper, charged fire extinguisher closely
available.
14. Use the cutting edge of the cut-off wheel only.
Never use side surface.
15. Do not attempt to keep the trigger in the ON
position.
16. If the cut-off wheel stops during operation,
makes an odd noise or begins to vibrate,
switch off the tool immediately.
