m )
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.
n )
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
o )
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.
p )
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
q )
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.
r )
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.
s )
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.
t )
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.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tools operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
u )
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Service
v )
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.
