instructions

SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
WORK
AREA SAFETY
[] Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
[] Do not operate
power tools in explosive
atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
[] Keep children
and bystanders
away while operat-
ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
ELECTRICAL
SAFETY
[] Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed
(grounded)
power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
[] Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators,
ranges
and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
[] Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk
of electric shock.
[] Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
[] When operating
a power tool outdoors,
use an exten-
sion cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suit-
able for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
[] Use battery only with charger
listed.

[] Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating
a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
[] Use safety equipment.
Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appro-
priate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
[] Avoid accidental
starting.
Ensure the switch
is in
the off-position before plugging in. Carrying power
tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
[] Remove any adjusting
key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to
a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
[] Do not overreach.
Keep proper footing
and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
[] Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jew-
elry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
[] if devices
are provided for the connection
of dust
extraction
and collection
facilities,
ensure these are
connected
and properly used. Use of these devices
can reduce dust-related
hazards.
[] Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn
into air vents.
[] Do not use on a ladder or unstable support.
Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected
situations.
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
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.
[] 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.
[] 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.
[] Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
