SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR REFERENCE
Always make sure the work surface is free
from nails and other foreign objects.
Cutting into a nail can cause the bit and
the tool to jump and damage the bit.
Always use a safe method to secure the
workpiece, and use both hands to guide
the tool. Never place your hands near or
below the cutting surface.
Never lay the workpiece on hard surfaces
like concrete, stone, etc. The protruding
cutting bit may cause the tool to jump.
After changing the bits, accessories and
making adjustments, make sure the collet
nut and any other adjustment devices are
securely tightened. Loose adjustment
devices will be violently thrown.
Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp bits
must be handled with care. Damaged bits
can snap during use. Dull bits require more
force to push the tool, possibly causing the
bit to break.
Never touch the bit during or immediately
after use. After use the bit is too hot to be
touched by bare hands.
