the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or key left attached to a rotating part
of a power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
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 that these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) 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.
4) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
(2.5)
[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 a rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on or 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 and/or remove the battery pack, if
detachable, from the power tools 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) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tools operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
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, 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.
h) 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 the control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
5) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
(2.6)
[Service]
a) Have 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.
HEALTH ADVICE
(2.7)
WARNING: When using this machine, dust
particles may be produced. In some instances,
depending on the materials you are working
with, this dust can be particularly harmful. If you
suspect that paint on the surface of material
you wish to cut contains lead, seek professional
advice. Lead based paints should only be
removed by a professional and you should not
attempt to remove it yourself. Once the dust
has been deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth
contact can result in the ingestion of lead.
Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause
irreversible brain and nervous system damage.
The young and unborn children are particularly
vulnerable.
You are advised to consider the risks associated
with the materials you are working with and to
reduce the risk of exposure.
As some materials can produce dust that may be
hazardous to your health, we recommend the
use of an approved face mask with replaceable
filters when using this machine.
You should always:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment, such
as dust masks that are specially designed to
filter microscopic particles.
