before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
21. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp cut-
ting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
22. Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions 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.
Battery tool use and care
23. 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.
24. Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is suit-
able for one type of battery pack may create a
risk of fire when used with another battery
pack.
25. Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.
26. 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 con-
nection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
27. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery, avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
Service
28. Have your power tool serviced by a quali-
fied repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
- WARNING- To reduce the risk of injury, user must read instruction manual.
