c) 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 energising power tools that have the

switch on invites accidents.

d) 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 personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-

ance 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 these

are connected and properly used. Use of dust

collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

6.1.4 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 the rate for

which it was designed.

b) 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.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source

and/or the battery pack from the power tool

before making any adjustments, changing ac-

cessories, or storing power tools. Such preven-

tive 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

tool’s 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.

6.1.5 Battery tool use and care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the

manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one

type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when

used with another battery pack.

b) Use power tools only with specifically designated

battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may

create a risk of injury and fire.

c) 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 connection from one terminal to

another. Shorting the battery terminals together

may cause burns or a fire.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected

from the battery, avoid contact. If contact ac-

cidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid

contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation

or burns.

6.1.6 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.

6.2 Additional safety rules

6.2.1 Personal safety

a) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces

only, when performing an operation where the

fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners

contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal

parts of the power tool “live” and shock the oper-

ator.

b) It is recommended that ear protectors are worn.

Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

c) Keep the power tool, especially its grip surfaces,

clean and free from oil and grease. Do not use

cleaning agents which contain silicone.

d) Improve the blood circulation in your fingers by

relaxing your hands and exercising your fingers

during breaks between working.
