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
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting 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
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.
2.5 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.
3. Special Safety Instructions
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss.
Use the additional handles supplied with the
tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
Pull the plug out of the socket before making any
adjustments, changing tools, maintaining or
cleaning.
Always work with the additional handle correctly
installed.
Always hold the machine with both hands on the
intended handles, take a secure stance and
concentrate on the work.
Wear personal protective equipment and
always wear safety glasses. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, protective gloves, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
Ensure that the place where you wish to work is free
of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g.
check using a metal detector).
Work only with a correctly fitted tool. Pull on the tool
to check that it is correctly seated. (It must be
possible to move the tool a few centimetres in an
axial direction.)
When working above ground level, ensure that the
area below you is clear.
Never touch the tool or parts near the tool directly
after work because they may be extremely hot and
can cause burns to the skin,
Always position the power cable so that it leads
away from the back of the machine.
A damaged or cracked additional handle must be
replaced. Never operate a machine with a defective
additional handle.
Secure the workpiece to prevent slipping or rotation
(e.g. by securing with screw clamps).
Additional Warnings:
Some dust created by power
WARNING
sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
