Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil
and grease.
Slippery hands cannot safely
control the power tool.
Power tool use and care
Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect 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 adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools.
Such preventive safety meas-
ures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar 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 mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tools oper-
ation. 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 and in the manner intended
for the particular type of power tool, tak-
ing 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.
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.
Service
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.
Develop a periodic maintenance sched-
ule for your tool. When cleaning a tool be
careful not to disassemble any portion of
the tool since internal wires may be mis-
placed or pinched or safety guard return
springs may be improperly mounted.
Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may
damage plastic parts.
SAFETY RULES FOR ROTARY TOOL
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and shock the operator.
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.
Accessories must be rated for at least the
speed recommended on the tool warning
label.
Wheels and other accessories run
-
ning over rated speed can fly apart and
cause injury.
If cutting into existing walls or other blind
areas where electrical wiring may exist is
unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit
breakers feeding this worksite.
Do not operate the flexible shaft with a
sharp bend.
Over bending the shaft can
generate excessive heat on the jacket or
hand piece. The recommended minimum is
6" radius.
Always disconnect the power cord from
the power source before making any
adjustments or attaching any acces-
