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.

h) This appliance is not intended for use by persons 

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory 

or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and 

knowledge, 

unless they have been given supervision or 

instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person 

responsible for their safety.

i) Children should be supervised to ensure that they do 

not play with the appliance.

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.

Additional safety rules for laser lights

The laser light used in the system is Class 2 with maximum 

1mW and 650nm  wavelengths. These lasers do not 

normally present an optical hazard, although staring at the 

beam may cause flash blindness. 

WARNING.

 Do not stare directly at the laser beam.

A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam. 

Please observe all safety rules as follows:

  The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance 

with the manufacturer’s instructions.

  Never aim the beam at any person or an object other 

than the work piece.

  The laser beam shall not be deliberately aimed at 

personnel and shall be prevented from being directed 

towards the eye of a person for longer than 0.25s.

  Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy work 

piece without reflective surfaces, i.e. wood or rough 

coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective 

sheet steel or the like is not suitable for laser use as 

the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the 

operator.

  Do not change the laser light assembly with a different 

type. Repairs must only be carried out by the laser 

manufacturer or an authorised agent.
