Kett KD-440 Quick Start Manual

GENERAL POWER TOOL S
Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to
follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future use. The
term "power tool" in these instructions refers to a
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Use the power tool, accessories, and tool bits in
accordance with these instructions. Take into account
working conditions and work to be performed. Use of
the power tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
Work Area Safety
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases,
and/or dust. Power tools create sparks that may ignite the
dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control of
the tool.
Electrical Safety
Power tool plugs must match the corresponding
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
the risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces like
refrigerators, pipes, and radiators when using electric
powered tools ; this will reduce the likelihood of shock if
your body is grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
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
the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, and/or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords can increase
the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a Residential Current Device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
Ensure your power supply agrees with the motor
nameplate marking. Use alternating current (50-60
cycles) and 120 V. Voltage variation of more than 10%
will cause loss of power and overheating.
Personal Safety
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 personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to a power source
and/or battery pack. Carrying tools with your finger on
the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or 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 jewelry.
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 dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
Power Tool Use and Care
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
complete 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 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 impact 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
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
Maintain labels and name plates. These carry important
information. If unreadable or missing, contact a KETT Tool
Company representative.
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.
