PERSONAL SAFETY
ŶStay 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
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
ŶUse personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust
PDVN QRQVNLG VDIHW\ VKRHV KDUG KDW RU KHDULQJ
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
ŶPrevent 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 finger on the
switch or energising power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
ŶRemove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on.$ZUHQFKRUDNH\OHIWDWWDFKHGWR
a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
ŶDo not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
ŶDress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
ŶIf 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.
ŶDo 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.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
ŶDo 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.
ŶDo not use the power tool if the switch does not turn

2
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
ŶDisconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such

the power tool accidentally.
ŶStore 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.
ŶMaintain power tools and accessories. 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.
ŶKeep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
OHVVOLNHO\WRELQGDQGDUHHDVLHUWRFRQWURO
ŶUse 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.
ŶKeep 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.
SERVICE
ŶHave 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.

ELECTRICAL
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the
WRRO¶V SOXJ :KHQ XVLQJ D SRZHU WRRO DW D FRQVLGHUDEOH
distance from the power source, use an extension cord
heavy enough to carry the current that the tool will draw.
An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line
voltage, resulting in a loss of power and causing the motor
to overheat.
Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.

A line intended only for lights cannot properly carry a

OPERATION
HAND POSITION
See page 17.
The position of your hands to the tool will be determined
by the amount of leverage required. The tool rest hand

The palm-down grip can be utilized for heavy roughing
applications. The heel of the hand will serve as a guide.
