Power tool use and care
uDo not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your ap-
plication. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
uDo 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.
uDisconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack
from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures re-
duce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
uStore idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to oper-
ate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
uMaintain 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 be-
fore use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
uKeep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
uUse 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 differ-
ent from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Battery tool use and care
uRecharge 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.
uUse power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use
of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
uWhen battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal ob-
jects, 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.
