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 remove the battery pack, if detachable 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 and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tools 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. 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.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROUTERS
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
•
because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting
a "live" witre may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
•
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holidng
the work by your hand or against the body leaves it
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Always use straight-cutters, rabbet-cutters, profile
•
cutters, slotter cutters or grooved knives with a shank
diameter corresponds to the size of the collet in your
tool.
• Always use cutters suitable for a speed of 35,000 min
and marked accordingly.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• No children or pregnant women should enter the work
rea where the paint sanding is being done until all
cleanup is completed.
• A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons
entering the work area. The filter should be replaced
daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing.
NOTE: only those dust masks suitable for working with lead
paint dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting
masks do not offer this protection. See your local hardware
dealer for the NIOSH approved proper mask.
RESIDUAL RISKS
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks cannot be avoided. These are:
– Impairment of hearing
– Risk of personal injury due flying particles.
– Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
– Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
– Risk of dust from hazardous substances.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Your tool is double insulated; therefore no earth
wire is required. Always check that the main
voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating
plate.
WARNING! If the power cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, authorized
STANLEY Service Center or an equally qualified
person in order to avoid damage or injury. If the
power cord is replaced by an equally qualified
person, but not authorized by STANLEY, the
warranty will not be valid.
USING AN EXTENSION CABLE
If it is necessary to use an extension cable, please use an
approved extension cable that fits the tool's power input
specifications. The minimum cross-sectional area of the
conducting wire is 1.5 sq. mm. Cables should be untangled
before reeling up.
