objects being thrown into your eyes, which can result

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

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 or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• 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.

* 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.
e Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

o 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.

=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 residual
current device (RCD} protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of

electric shock.

17088 Manual Revised 09-0728 Page 4

PERSONAL SAFETY

= Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when

operating a power tool. Do not use 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.

= Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.

Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

= 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 tools with your finger on the switch or inserting

the battery pack into a tool with the switch on invites accidents.

= Remove any adjusting key or wrenches before turning the tool on. A

wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in
personal injury.

= Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper

footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected
situations.

• 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.

• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use
of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct

tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which is designed.

Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any 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 marking any adjustments, changing

accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons.

Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain tools with care. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the

tools operation, if damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

17088 Manual Revised 09-0728 Page 5

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.

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.

SERVICE

• Have your power too[ serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power

tool is maintained.
