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elec-
tricshockifyourbodyisearthedorgrounded.

ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
theriskofelectricshock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

wear eye protection.Protectiveequipmentsuch
asadustmask,non-skidsafetyshoes,hardhator
hearingprotectionusedforappropriateconditions
willreducepersonalinjuries.
3. 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switchorenergisingpowertools
that have the switch on invites accidents.

these are connected and properly used.Useof
dustcollectioncanreducedust-relatedhazards.
8. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles.Acarelessaction
cancausesevereinjurywithinafractionofa
second.
9. Always wear protective goggles to protect
your eyes from injury when using power tools.
The goggles must comply with ANSI Z87.1 in
the USA, EN 166 in Europe, or AS/NZS 1336
in Australia/New Zealand. In Australia/New
Zealand, it is legally required to wear a face
shield to protect your face, too.
It is an employer's responsibility to enforce
the use of appropriate safety protective equip-
ments by the tool operators and by other per-
sons in the immediate working area.
Power tool use and care

and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable,
from the power tool before making any adjust-
ments, 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 chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate

5. Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that
may a󰀨ect the power tool’s operation. If dam-
aged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Manyaccidentsarecausedbypoorlymaintained
power tools.
