Do not throw away the safety instructions.

■

Do not use a tool if it has been damaged.

■

Be careful when you are handling fasteners,
especially during loading and unloading, as the

■

Do not lean too far forward. Use only in a safe

■

User instructions must warn of the risks associ-
ated with switchable release.
