facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of dust collec-
tion can reduce dust-related hazards.
Do not let familiarity gained from fre-
quent use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety prin-
ciples. A careless action can cause se-
vere injury within a fraction of a second.
Power Tool Use and Care
Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it is de-
signed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it ON and OFF. Any pow-
er tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be re-
paired.
Disconnect the plug from the pow-
er source and/or remove the battery
pack, if detachable, from the power
tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing pow-
er tools. Such preventive safety mea-
sures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamil-
iar with the power tool or these instruc-
tions to operate the power tool. Power
tools can be dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
Maintain 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 op er ation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents 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 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.
wet conditions. Water entering a pow-
er tool will increase the risk of electrical
shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected
supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of
electric shock.
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 you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medica-
tion. A mo ment of inattention while oper-
ating tools may result in serious personal
injury.
Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protec-
tion used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
Prevent 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 energizing power
tools that have the switch on invites acci-
dents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool ON. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating
part of the power tool may result in per-
sonal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.

tion of dust extraction and collection
