26 General Power Tool Safety Warnings
not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.f)Dress prop‐
erly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.g)If devices
are provided for the connection of dust extraction
and collection facilities, ensure these are con‐
nected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
26.4 4) Power tool use and care
a)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.b)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.c)Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such pre‐
ventive safety measures reduce the risk of start‐
ing the power tool accidentally.d)Store idle power
tools 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.e)Maintain power tools. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool's operation. If dam‐
aged, 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 cut‐
ting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control.g)Use the power tool, accessories, 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.
26.5 5) Battery tool use and care
a)Recharge the batteries only in chargers speci‐
fied by the manufacturer. A charger that is suita‐
ble 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 bat‐
tery 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,
0458-707-9821-C
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small objects
that could make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a fire.d)Misuse may
cause liquid to escape from the battery. Avoid
contact with the liquid. 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.
26.6 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.
26.7 7) Safety instructions for abra‐
sive wheel applications
26.7.1 Safety instructions for cut-off
machines
a)The guard for the electrical power tool must be
mounted securely and set to achieve a maximum
level of safety, i. e. the smallest possible part of
the abrasive element points openly towards the
operator. Make sure that you and no other per‐
son is outside the area of the rotating grinding
wheel. The guard is designed to protect the oper‐
ator against fragments and accidental contact
with the abrasive element.b)Use only bound rein‐
forced or diamond-tipped abrasive wheels for
your electrical power tool. Just because the
accessory can be mounted to the electrical
power tool, this does not guarantee safe
use.c)The permissible speed of the tool being
used must be at least as high as the maximum
speed indicated on the electrical power tool. An
accessory that rotates quicker than permitted
can break and fly around.d)Abrasive elements
must only be used for the recommended applica‐
tions. For example: Never grind with the side sur‐
face of an abrasive wheel. Abrasive wheels are
designed to remove material with the edge of the
wheel. Lateral forces applied to these abrasive
elements can break them. e)Always use an
undamaged clamping flange of the correct size
and form for the abrasive wheel you have
chosen. Suitable flanges support the abrasive
wheel and reduce the risk of the abrasive wheel
breaking.f)Do not use worn abrasive wheels from
larger electrical power tools. Abrasive wheels for
larger electrical power tools are not designed for
the high engine speeds of smaller electrical
power tools and can break.g)The outer diameter
and thickness of the tool being used must corre‐
spond to the dimensions of your electrical power
