PERSONAL SAFETY
•
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common
sense when
operating
a power the tool. Do not use a power tool while 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 dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection,
used for appropriate
conditions,
will reduce
personal injuries.
•
Prevent
unintentional
starting.
Ensure that the switch is in the OFF
position before connecting
to a power source and/or
battery pack,
picking
up, or carrying the tool. Carrying power 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 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 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
that these
are connected
and properly
used.
Use of these devices 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 do the job better and more safely at
the rate for which it was designated.
•
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 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.
Check
for misalignment
or binding
of moving
parts,
breakage
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.
