■
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising 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 jewellery. Keep your
hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery 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 dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
■
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to
become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
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 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.
■
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 and accessories. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool's operation. lf damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maíntained power tools.
■
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
■
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.
■
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Slippery handles and grasping surtaces do not allow for safe
handlíng and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
■
Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A
charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of
fire when used with another battery pack.
■
Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use
of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
■
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 connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
■
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery;
avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
24
■
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
■
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
■
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack
or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
SERVICE
■
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.
■
Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should
only be performed by the manufacturer or authorised service providers.
ADDITIONAL GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
■
Some regions have regulations that restrict the use of the product to
some operation. Check with your local authority for advice.
■
Never allow children or people who are unfamiliar with the instructions to
use the product. Local regulations may restrict the age of the operator.
■
Ensure before each use that all controls and safety devices function
correctly. Do not use the product if the "off" switch does not stop the
motor.
■
Wear full eye and hearing protection, strong sturdy gloves, and head
protection while operating the product. Use a face mask if operation is
dusty.
■
Do not wear loose-fitting clothing, short trousers, or jewellery of any kind.
■
Secure long hair so that it is above shoulder level to prevent entanglement
in moving parts.
■
Beware of thrown, flying, or falling objects. Keep all bystanders, children,
and animals at least 15 m away from the work area.
■
Do not operate the product in poor lighting. The operator requires a clear
view of the work area to identify potential hazards.
■
The use of hearing protection reduces the ability to hear warnings
(shouts or alarms). The operator must pay extra attention to what is
going on in the working area.
■
Operating similar products nearby increases both the risk of hearing
injury and the potential for other persons to enter the working area.
■
Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. Overreaching can result
in loss of balance and can increase the risk of kickback.
■
Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part.
■
Inspect the product before each use. Check for the correct operation of all
controls. Check for loose fasteners. Make sure that all guards and handles
are properly and securely attached. Replace any damaged parts before
use.
■
Do not modify the product in any way or use parts and accessories that
are not recommended by the manufacturer.
■
Do not allow familiarity with the product to make you careless. A careless
fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict serious injury.
■
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.
WARNING! If the product is dropped, suffers heavy impact, or begins to
vibrate abnormally, immediately stop the product and inspect for damage or
identify the cause of the vibration. Any damage should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorised service centre.
FOR ASSEMBLING WITH ELECTRIC-DRIVEN POWER HEAD
■
Electrical power should be supplied via a residual current device (RCD)
with a tripping current of not more than 30 mA.
■
If you need to use an extension cable, ensure that the extension cable is
