Personal Safety
1. 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 inuence of drugs, alcohol or med-
ication. A moment of inattention while operating 
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. 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 personal injuries.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the 
switch is in the off-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.
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 footing and 
balance at all times. This enables better control 
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
6.  Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or 
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves 
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-
lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
7. 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.
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.
It is an employer's responsibility to enforce the 
use of appropriate safety protective equipment 
by the tool operators and by other persons in 
the immediate working area.
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 controlled with the switch is dangerous and 
must be repaired.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power source 
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 
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the 
hands of untrained users.
5. 
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for 
misalignment or binding of moving parts, break-
age 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.
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, 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.
8. 
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean 
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and 
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and 
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
9. 
When using the tool, do not wear cloth work gloves 
which may be entangled. The entanglement of cloth work 
gloves in the moving parts may result in personal injury.
Battery tool use and care
1. Recharge only with the charger specied by 
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for 
one type of battery pack may create a risk of re 
when used with another battery pack.
2. Use power tools only with specically desig-
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery 
packs may create a risk of injury and re.
3. 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 termi-
nals together may cause burns or a re.
4. 
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected 
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact acci-
dentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contacts 
eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected 
from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
5. 
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or 
modied. Damaged or modied batteries may exhibit unpre-
dictable behaviour resulting in re, explosion or risk of injury.
6.  Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re or 
excessive temperature. Exposure to re or tem-
perature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
7. Follow all charging instructions and do not 
charge the battery pack or tool outside the 
temperature range specied in the instruc-
tions. Charging improperly or at temperatures 
outside the specied range may damage the 
battery and increase the risk of re.
Service
1. 
Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair 
person using only identical replacement parts. This will 
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
2. Never service damaged battery packs. Service 
of battery packs should only be performed by the 
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
3. Follow instruction for lubricating and chang-
ing accessories.
4. Do not modify or attempt to repair the appli-
ance or the battery pack except as indicated in 
the instructions for use and care.
