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.
◾
Use Right Appliance – Do not use appliance for any job except that for which it
is intended.
◾
Remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool and/or activate
any battery disabling device before clearing jammed material, making any
adjustments, changing accessories, cleaning, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
◾
Store Idle Appliances Indoors – When not in use, appliances should be
stored indoors in dry, and high or locked-up place – out of reach of children.
◾
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 and accessories.
◾
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, 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.
