IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
When using the tool, please observe the safety
precautions below to prevent possible accident or
injury.
GENERAL: TOOLS
Warning
TO OPERATORS
●Wear proper clothing for the type of work being
done.
Take care so that clothing, ties, hair, etc. will not
become entangled with the moving parts. If items
become entangled it will cause the operator to be
pulled towards the tool and lead to possible cause of
accident or injury.
●Always wear suitable eye protection.
Remember, regular glasses are not safety glasses.
The lenses are only shock resistant, which will not
give you sufficient eye protection you may need in
your working environment.
●Always wear suitable hearing protection.
●Wear respiratory protective equipment (PPE).
Wear respiratory protective equipment (PPE) when
working in an environment where dust particles are
generated in operation.
●Always wear protective gloves for protection of
hands from vibration and shock.
●Avoid working posture that is too stressful.
Always ensure a firm footing and well balanced
posture.
●Do not operate the tool if you are too tired.
●Never touch any moving parts of the tool when
running.
ABOUT WORK AREA
●Keep the work area clean.
Cluttered work areas (e.g. workbench) invite
accidents.
●Carefully select the work area.
Do not expose tool to rain.
Do not use tool in a wet or soaked area.
See that the work area is adequately illuminated.
●Never work near inflammable liquid or in a
potentially explosive atmosphere.
●Keep children away from the work area.
Keep children and unauthorized people away from
the work area to avoid accident or injury.
BEFORE OPERATION
●Inspect tool before use.
Before using, check that screws are securely
tightened, that any protective cover or guard is
securely in place, other parts are free from damage
and that the tool runs as it should.
Check that moving parts are properly adjusted for
positioning and tightened, that parts are free from
damage and properly mounted, and that all other
parts are in good condition for normal operation.
Should you find any damage to the protective
cover or other part, replace it in accordance with
the Operation Manual. If there are no instructions
in the Manual, please contact the sales agent
through which you have purchased your tool or an
authorized dealer near you for repair.
Likewise, if a switch failure occurs, contact sales
agent through which you have purchased your tool
or an authorized dealer near you for repair.

capacity of tool.
●Do not use the tool for purposes other than what
it is designed for.
●Do not abuse tool.
Use tool in accordance with the specifications: you’ll
get the most out of it while ensuring safety.
