POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
- 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 the rate for which it
was designed.
- Do not use the power tool if
the switch does 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 and/or battery
pack, if detachable, from the
power tool before making any
adjustments, changing acces-
sories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety mea-
sures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
- Store idle power tool 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.
- Maintain power tools and
accessories. 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.
- Keep cutting tools sharp and
clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and
are easier to control.
- Use the power tool, accesso-
ries and tool bits etc in accor-
dance with these instructions,
taking into account the work-
ing conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power
tool for operations different from
those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
- 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 unex-
pected situations.
SERVICE
- Have your power tool serviced
by a qualified repair person
using only identical replace-
ment parts. This will ensure
that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
