Use And Care Manual

Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in or

attaching the battery. Carrying tools with your ﬁnger on the switch or

powering tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench

or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in

personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing

and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety

shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

Before connecting the tool to a power source (receptacle, outlet, etc.), be

sure voltage supplied is the same as that speciﬁed on the nameplate of

the tool. A power source with voltage greater than that speciﬁed for the

tool can result in serious injury to the user – as well as damage to the tool.

TOOL USE AND CARE

Use clamps or other practical ways to support and secure the

workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against

your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.

Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The

correct tool will do the job better and more safely at the rate for which it

is designed.

Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that

cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect the tool from the power source before making any adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures

reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools

are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are

easier to control.

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,

and any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged,

have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained tools.

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for

your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become

hazardous when used on another tool.
