A. 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.
B. 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.
C. Remove 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. Store idle appliances indoors. When not in use,
appliances should be stored indoors in a dry and high
or locked-up place, out of the reach of children.
F. Maintain power tools. 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.
G. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
H. Use the power tool in accordance with these
instructions and in the manner intended for the
particular type of power tool, 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.
I. Keep guards in place and in working order.

person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
