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.

fore making any adjustments, changing acces

sories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.

or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
