5.4 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 safer at the rate for which it was designed.
▪ 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 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 sticking 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.
▪ Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to stick and are easier to control.
▪ Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits 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 intended could lead to a hazardous situation.
5.5 Service
▪ 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.
5.6 Additional general safety instructions for power tools
▪ Do not let other persons, especially children, touch the power tool or cable.
▪ Unused power tools should be stored in a dry, elevated or locked place, out of the reach of
children.
▪ Do not use the power tool for purposes for which it is not intended. For example, do not
use a hand-held circular saw to cut tree branches or logs.
▪ When working outdoors, it is recommended to wear non-slip shoes.
▪ If you have long hair, wear a hair net.
▪ Follow the instructions on lubrication and tool replacement.
▪ Check the power tool‘s connection cable regularly and, in case of damage, have it
replaced by a recognised expert.
▪ Check the extension cables regularly and replace them when they are damaged.
▪ Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and grease.
▪ Remove the plug from the socket when the power tool is not in use, before maintenance
and when changing tools such as saw blades, drill bits, cutters.
▪ Check the power tool for possible damage.
▪ Before further use of the power tool, check carefully that guards or slightly damaged parts
are functioning correctly and properly.
▪ Check that the movable parts are functioning properly and that they do not jam and are
not damaged. All parts must be mounted correctly and comply with all conditions in order
to ensure correct operation of the power tool.
▪ Damaged guards and parts must be repaired or replaced in accordance with their
intended use by a recognised workshop, unless otherwise specified in the operating
instructions.
▪ Damaged switches must be replaced at a customer service shop.
WARNING! The use of other insertion tools and other accessories may
involve a risk of personal injury.
