Operating Instructions

TY RULES WARNING! Read all instructions Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool and battery operated (cord-less) power tool.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Work Area Safety 1) Keep work area clean and well lit.Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. 2) Do not operate power tools in explo-sive atmospheres, such as in the pres-ence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. 3) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.Distractions can cause you to lose control. Electrical Safety 1) 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. 2) 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.3) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will in-crease the risk of electric shock. 4) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplug-ging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. 5) When operating a power tool out-doors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. Personal Safety 1) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when opera-ting a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medi-cation.A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in personal injury. 2) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. 3) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in the power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. 4) 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. 5) Do not overreach. Keep proper foot-ing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. 6) Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, cloth-ing and gloves away from moving parts.Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. 7) If devices are provided for the con-nection of dust extraction and collec-tion facilities, ensure these are con-nected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards. Power Tool Use and Care

1) 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. 2) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.Any power tool that cannot be cont-rolled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. EY7410(UL).indb 3 2006/09/08 17:30:48-

3) 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. 4) 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. 5) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-alignment 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. 6) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. 7) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intend-ed for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the work-ing conditions and the work to be per-formed.Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. Battery Tool Use and Care 1) Ensure the switch is in the off posi-tion before inserting battery pack.Inserting battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. 2) Recharge only with the charger speci-fied by the manufacturer.A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. 3) Use power tools only with specifi-cally designated battery packs.Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire. 4) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another.Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns, or a fire. 5) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from battery; avoid con-tact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns. Service 1) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of power tool is maintained. II

TY RULES 1) Wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods.

Prolonged exposure to high intensity

noise can cause hearing loss.

2) Be aware that this tool is always in an operating condition, since it does not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet. 3) Hold power tools by insulated grip-ping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will make ex-posed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.4) If the bit becomes jammed, immediately turn the main switch off to prevent an overload which can damage the battery pack or motor. Use reverse motion to loosen jammed bits.5) Do not touch the rotating parts to avoid injury. 6)

Do not use the tool continuously for a

long period of time. Stop using the tool

from time to time to avoid temperature

rise and heat overload of the motor. 7) Do not drop the tool. EY7410(UL).indb 4 2006/09/08 17:30:48-
