VIBRATION INFORMATION

Vibration total values (triax vec tor sum) determined
according to EN 60745:

Typical weighted
vibration

The declared vibration total value may be used for
comparing one tool with another, and may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING: The vibration emission value

during actual use of the power tool can differ
from the declared value depending on the ways in
which the tool is used dependant on the following
examples and other variations on how the tool is
used:
How the tool is used and the materials being cut or
sanded.
The tool being in good condition and well
maintained
The use the correct accessory for the tool and
ensuring it is sharp and in good condition.
The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any
anti vibration accessories are used.
And the tool is being used as intended by its design
and these instructions.

This tool may cause hand-arm vibration
syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.

WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of

exposure level in the actual conditions of use
should also take account of all parts of the operating

/ll

cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle but not actually doing the
job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level
over the total working period.
Helping to minimize your vibration exposure risk.
ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades.
Maintain this tool in accordance with these
instructions and keep well lubricated (where
appropriate).
If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti
vibration accessories.
Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10
Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration
tool use across a number of days.

GENERAL POWER TOOL
SAFETY WARNINGS

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.

Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.

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 will 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 residual
current device (RCD) protected
supply. Use of an RCD 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,
non-skid 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
energising 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 jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery 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 these

devices 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

8

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.

SAFETY INSTRUCTION FOR
CUTTING

1. Hold power tool by insulated gripping

surfaces, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord.

Cutting accessory contacting a
“live” wire may make exposed metal parts
of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electric shock.

2. Always wear a dust mask.

5. 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 tool is
maintained.

We recommend that you purchase your accessories listed in the above list from the same store that sold
you the tool. Use good quality accessories marked with a well-known brand name. Refer to the accessory
packaging for further details. Store personnel can assist you and offer advice.

NOTE: When plunging and sawing use a slight pendulum motion, to allow sufficient chip removal.
The saw blade lasts longer if the wear is distributed evenly. To ensure an even distribution, loosen the saw
blade, rotate it and retighten firmly.
Cut/Sand with a constant movement and light pressure.

Heavy pressure does not increase the cut/removal rate – the accessory merely wears faster.

WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR

13 Amp fuse approved

TOOL

If your power tool becomes too hot, especially when
used at low speed, set the speed to maximum and
run it with no load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor.
Avoid prolonged usage at very low speeds. Always
keep the blade sharp.
Always ensure the workpiece is firmly held or
clamped to prevent movement.
Any movement of the material may affect the quality
of the cutting or sanding finish.
Start your tool before working and turn it off only
after you stop working.
Do not start sanding without having the sandpaper fitted.
Do not allow the sandpaper to wear away , it will
damage the sanding pad. The guarantee does not
cover sanding pad wear and tear.Use coarse grit
paper to sand rough surfaces, medium grit for
smooth surfaces and fine grit for finishing surfaces. If
necessary, first make a test run on scrap material.
Excessive force will reduce the working efficiency
and cause motor overload. Replacing the accessory

regularly will maintain optimum working efficiency.
