sense. Do not operate a power tool when you are tired.
18. Check for damaged parts. Before using a tool, check
that there are no damaged parts. If a part is slightly
damaged, carefully determine if it will operate properly
and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
proper mounting and any other conditions that may affect
the operation of the tool. A part that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised service
facility, unless otherwise indicated in this Instruction
