GENERAL SAFETY RULES

instructions. Failure to follow all instructions

listed below, may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious personal injury.

1 Keep your work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.

2 Do not operate tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.

3 Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control.

4 A battery operated tool with integral
batteries or a separate battery pack must
be recharged only with the specified
charger for the battery. A charger that may

be suitable for one type of battery may create a
risk of fire or electric shock when used with
another battery .

5 Use battery operated tool only with
specifically designated battery pack. Use of

any other batteries may create a risk of fire.

6 Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating a
tool. Do not use while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.

A moment of inattention while operating tools
may result in serious personal injury .

7 Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Contain long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery,

or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

8 Avoid accidental starting. Ensure switch
is in the off position before plugging in or
inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with

your finger on the switch or energising tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.

9 Remove adjusting keys or wrenches
before turning the tool on. A wrench or key

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

10 Do not overreach. Stand on both feet an
keep proper footing and balance at all
times. Proper footing and balance enables better

control of the tool in unexpected situations.

11 Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Work area

Electrical safety

Personal safety

hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for
appropriate conditions.

12 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.

Tool use and care

13 Use clamps or other practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or

against your body is unstable and may lead to
loss of control.

14 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 it is
designed.

15 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.

16 Disconnect battery pack from tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the tool. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the tool accidentally.

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

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

18 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 sparks, burns, or a fire.

19 Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting
tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained

tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.

20 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.

21 Use only accessories that are
recommended by the manufacturer for
your model. Accessories that may be suitable

for one tool, may become hazardous when used
on another tool.

Service

22 Tool service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel. Service or

maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel could result in a risk of injury.

23 When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the Maintenance section of this manual. Use

of unauthorised parts or failure to follow
Maintenance instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury .

•lead from lead-based paints,

•crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and

•arsenic and chromium from chemically­treated lumber.

The risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work.

Various dust created by power

construction activities contains chemicals known
(to the State of California) to cause cancer , birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:

To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved
safety equipment, such as dust
masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopic particles.
