e ) Maintain power tools and accesories. Check
for misalignment 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.
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 behavior
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 265 °F (129 °C) may
cause explosion."
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.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MITER SAWS
a ) Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or wood-
like products, they cannot be used with abrasive
cut-off wheels for cutting ferrous material such
as bars, rods, studs, etc. Abrasive dust causes
moving parts such as the lower guard to jam.
Sparks from abrasive cutting will burn the lower
guard, the kerf insert and other plastic parts.
b ) Use clamps to support the workpiece whenever
possible. If supporting the workpiece by hand,
you must always keep your hand at least
100 mm from either side of the saw blade. Do
not use this saw to cut pieces that are too small
to be securely clamped or held by hand. If your
hand is placed too close to the saw blade, there is an
increased risk of injury from blade contact.
c ) The workpiece must be stationary and clamped
or held against both the fence and the table.
Do not feed the workpiece into the blade
or cut freehand in any way. Unrestrained or
moving workpieces could be thrown at high speeds,
causing injury.
d ) Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not
pull the saw through the workpiece. To make a
cut, raise the saw head and pull it out over the
workpiece without cutting, start the motor, press
the saw head down and push the saw through
the workpiece. Cutting on the pull stroke is likely to
cause the saw blade to climb on top of the workpiece
and violently throw the blade assembly towards
the operator.
e ) Never cross your hand over the intended line of
cutting either in front or behind the saw blade.
Supporting the workpiece cross handed i.e.
holding the workpiece to the right of the saw blade
with your left hand or vice versa is very dangerous.
f ) Do not reach behind the fence with either hand
closer than 100 mm from either side of the saw
blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other
reason while the blade is spinning. The proximity
of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be
obvious and you may be seriously injured.
g ) Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the
workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the
outside bowed face toward the fence. Always
make certain that there is no gap between the
workpiece, fence and table along the line of the
cut. Bent or warped workpieces can twist or shift and
may cause binding on the spinning saw blade while
