Cordless cut-out tool safety warnings
1.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur
-
faces, when performing an operation where the
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring.
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.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by your hand or against the body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

4.
Ventilate your work area adequately.
5.
Check the bit carefully for cracks or damage
before operation. Replace cracked or damaged
bit immediately.

Check for the proper clearance beneath the
workpiece before cutting so that the bit will not
strike a hard surface such as the floor, work

Do not cut metal objects such as nails and
screws. Inspect for and remove all nails,
screws and other foreign material from the
workpiece before operation.
8.
Check that the bit is not contacting the work
-
piece before the switch is turned on. Always
hold the tool with two hands while switching
the tool on. The motor torque can cause the
tool to turn.
9.
Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate improperly
installed bit.
10.
Make sure that the shaft lock is released
before the switch is turned on.

only when hand-held.
17.
Always switch off and wait for the bit to come
to a complete stop before removing the bit
from workpiece.
18.
Do not touch the bit or the workpiece immedi
-
ately after operation; they may be extremely
hot and could burn your skin.
19.
Draw attention to the need to use cutters of the
correct shank diameter and which are suitable
for the speed of the tool.
