better and safer performance. Follow the instructions
regarding lubrication and accessory changes. Inspect
tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have them
repaired by an authorised service facility. Inspect
extension cords periodically and replace them if
damaged. Keep tool handles dry, clean and free from

sense. Do not operate a power tool when you are
tired.
16. 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

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 Manual.
