PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operat-
ing a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment, such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, and hearing protection, when
used for appropriate conditions, will reduce personal injuries.
Avoid accidental starting. Make sure that the switch is in the "OFF" position
before plugging the tool into an electrical outlet. Carrying power tools with
your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the power
switch "ON" invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, cloth-
ing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, make sure that these are connected and properly used. Use of
these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
Use clamps or another practical way to support and secure the workpiece
to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable footing on a solid surface
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Slippery hands cannot
safely control the power tool.
Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Everyday glasses may have
impact-resistant lenses, but they are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule
will reduce the risk of eye injury.
Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Fol-
lowing this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods of
operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious person injury.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and more safely at the rate for
which it was designated.
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.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
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.
Maintain power tools. 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 ac-
cidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories, blades, 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.
Hold power tools by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing any
operation in which the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the
tool "live" and can shock the operator.
Know your power tool. Read the product manual carefully. Learn the applica-
tions and limitations, as well as the specific, potential hazards related to this tool.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or serious injury.
Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct
others who may use this tool. If you lend this tool to someone else, also lend
them these instructions.
