c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety mea-
sures 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 unfa-
miliar with the power tool or these instruc-
tions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, break-
age 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. Prop-
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp cut-
ting edges are less likely to bind and are eas-
ier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories, tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions, 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 hazard-
ous situation.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is suit-
able 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
battery 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, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects, that can make a con-
nection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. In liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.

6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a quali-
fied repair person using only identical re-
placement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.

For Your Safety

Read all instructions. Failure to fol-
low all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
When working with the power tool, always
hold it firmly with both hands and provide
for a secure stance. Both hands guide a
power tool more securely.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
Do not work materials containing asbes-
tos. Asbestos is considered carcinogenic.
Take protective measures when dust can
develop during working that is harmful to
one's health, combustible or explosive. Ex-
ample: Some dusts are regarded as carcino-
genic. Wear a dust mask and work with dust /
chip extraction when connectable.
Keep your workplace clean. Material mix-
tures are particularly dangerous. Dust of light
metal can be inflammable or explode.
Always wait until the tool has come to a
complete stop before placing it down. The
tool insert can jam and lead to loss of control
over the power tool.
Do not use a power tool with a damaged
power cord. Do not touch the damaged
cord and pull the power plug when the cord
is damaged while working. Damaged cords
increase the risk of an electric shock.
Connect power tools that are used in the
open via a ground fault circuit interrupter.
Always use the auxiliary handles supplied
with the machine. Loss of control can cause
personal injury.
Use appropriate detectors to determine if
utility lines are hidden in the work area or
call the local utility company for assistance.
Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and
electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead
to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes
property damage or may cause an electric
shock.
