shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for  
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.  
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the  
off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with  
your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that  
have the switch on invites accidents.  
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning  
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to

injury.  
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at  
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in  
unexpected situations.  
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 and in the manner  
intended for the particular type of power tool, 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  
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or  
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from  
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 these devices can  
reduce dust related hazards.  
a. Ensure the switch is in the off position before  
inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into  
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.  
b. 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.  
c. Use power tools only with specifically designated  
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may  
create a risk of injury and fire.  
d. 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.  
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 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. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
