GeneralSafety Rules

WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the

warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVEALL WARNINGSAND iNSTRUCTiONSFORFUTUREREFERENCE

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool

or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the

presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions

can cause you to lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the 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 risk of electric shock:

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,

radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if

your body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power

tool wifl increase the risk of electric shock:

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging

the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) 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.

f) if operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault

circuit interrupter (GFCl) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of

electric shock:

3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) 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.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective

equipment such as dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) 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 energizing power tools

that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) 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.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables

better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) 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.

g) 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.

4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
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) 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 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) 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.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp

cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) 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.

5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a) 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:

b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any

other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

c) 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 bums or a fire.

d) 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.

6) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power toolis maintained.

Specific Safety Rules

• Rold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the

cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may

make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

• Use auxiliary handle(s) if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal

injury.

• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the work piece to a stable

platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to

loss of control.

• When not in use, place tool on its side on astable surface where it will not cause a

tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright but may be
easily knocked over.

• Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from air vents. Air vents often cover

moving parts in which these items can be caught.

. Hold tool firmly with two hands, one hand on the handle, and the other gripping the bottom

around the battery area. Use auxiliary handle if provided. Loss of control can cause personal

injury.
