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
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
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 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.
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.
If the “Lock-ON” button is continuously
being depressed, the trigger cannot be
released.
Never leave the trigger locked "ON". Before
plugging the tool in, check that the trigger
lock is "OFF". Accidental start-ups could
cause injury.
Be aware of the location and setting of the
switch "Lock-ON" button. If the switch is
locked "ON" during the use, be ready for
emergency situations to switch it "OFF".
Always hold the tools with both hands while
starting. Torque from the motor can cause the
tool to twist and slip from your hands.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely
control the power tool.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against
your body is unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
If devices are provided for the connection to
dust collection and extraction systems, be
sure these are connected and used
according to tool and vacuum instructions.
Proper use of dust collection can reduce dust
related hazards.
If devices are provided for the connection of
dust collection and extraction systems,
empty the dust container before beginning
work, frequently during work, after
completion of work, and before storing the
tool. Be extremely careful of dust disposal,
materials in fine particles form may be
explosive.
Do not throw dust on an open fire.
Combustion from mixture of varnishes,
lacquers, polyurethane, oil or water with dust
particles can occur if there is a static discharge,
electric spark, or excessive heat.
Do not use dust extraction for operations
where dust may include burning, smoking
or smoldering items like hot ashes or
sparks. Fire inside the vacuum tank or bag
may occur. Dust may smolder and set vacuum
on fire long after work is completed.
Do not use dust extraction with explosive
dusts, varnish, polyurethane coatings,
cleaners, or oil-based paints. Electric motors
create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
Do not use dust extraction when working on
metal. Swarf from sanding, grinding or cutting
metal may be hot and may spark which may
melt plastic adaptors, vacuum hoses and may
cause a fire inside the vacuum tank or bag.
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.
Preventative maintenance performed by
unauthorized personnel may result in
misplacing of internal wires and
components which could cause serious
hazard. We recommend that all tool service be
performed by a Bosch Factory Service Center
or Authorized Bosch Service Station.
