moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery 
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 designed. 
b)   Do not use the power tool if the 
switch does not turn it on and off. 
Any power tool that cannot be controlled 
with the switch is dangerous and must be 
repaired.
c)   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. 
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 
users. 
e)   Maintain power tools. Check for 
misalignment or binding of moving 
parts, breakage of parts and any 
other condition that may affect 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 different from 
those intended could result in a hazardous 
situation. 
5.  BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a)   Recharge only with the charger 
specified 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.
b)   Use power tools only with 
specifically designated battery 
packs.
 Use of any other battery packs 
may create a risk of injury and fire.
c)   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.
d)  Under abusive conditions, liquid may 
be ejected from the battery; avoid 
contact. 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.
6.    SERVICE
a)   Have your power tool serviced by 
a qualified repair person using only 
identical replacement parts. This will 
ensure that the safety of the power tool is 
maintained.
