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.

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 dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Slippery handles do not allow
for safe handling and control of the tools in
unexpected situations.
