instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions

may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury. Save

all warnings and instructions for future reference. The

term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-

operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark

areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres,suchasinthepresenceofammable

liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keepchildrenandbystandersawaywhileoperating

a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) 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.

Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk

b) 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.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase

the risk of electric shock.

d) Donotabusethecord.Neverusethecordfor

carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or

moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase

the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extensioncordsuitableforoutdooruse. Use of a

cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable,useanearthleakagecircuitbreaker.

Use of an earth leakage circuit breaker reduces the risk

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Do

not use a power tool while you are tired or under

theinuenceofdrugs,alcoholormedication. A

moment of inattention while operating power tools may

result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear

eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch

isintheo-positionbeforeconnectingtopower

sourceand/orbatterypack,pickinguporcarrying

the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the

the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to

a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal

e) Donotoverreach.Keepproperfootingandbalance

at all times. This enables better control of the power

tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away

from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are

connected and properly used. Use of dust collection

can reduce dust-related hazards.

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

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not

turnitonando. Any power tool that cannot be

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or

thebatterypackfromthepowertoolbeforemaking7

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

otherconditionthatmayaect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

dierent from those intended could result in a hazardous
