I. GENERAL 
SAFETY RULES
 
WARNING! Read all instructions
Failure to follow all instructions listed below 
may  result  in  electric  shock,  fire  and/or 
serious  injury.  The  term  “power  tool”  in  all 
of  the  warnings  listed  below  refers  to  your 
mains  operated  (corded)  power  tool  and 
battery operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Work Area Safety
1)  Keep work area clean and well lit.
  Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2)  Do  not  operate  power  tools  in  explosive 
atmospheres, such as in the presence of 
flammable liquids, gases or dust.
  Power  tools  create  sparks  which  may  ignite 
the dust or fumes.
3)  Keep children and bystanders away while 
operating a power tool.
  Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
1) Power  tool  plugs  must  match  the  outlet. 
Never  modify  the  plug  in  any  way.  Do 
not  use  any  adapter  plugs  with  earthed 
(grounded) power tools.
  Unmodified  plugs  and  matching  outlets  will 
reduce risk of electric shock.
2)  Avoid  body  contact  with  earthed  or 
grounded  surfaces  such  as  pipes, 
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
  There is an increased risk of electric shock if 
your body is earthed or grounded.
3)  Do not expose power tools to rain or wet 
conditions.
  Water entering a power tool will increase the 
risk of electric shock.
4)  Do  not  abuse  the  cord.  Never  use  the 
cord  for  carrying,  pulling  or  unplugging 
the  power  tool.  Keep  cord  away  from 
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
  Damaged  or  entangled  cords  increase  the 
risk of electric shock.
5)  When  operating  a  power  tool  outdoors, 
use  an  extension  cord  suitable  for 
outdoor use.
  Use  of  a  cord  suitable  for  outdoor  use 
reduces the risk of electric shock.
6)  If  operating  a  power  tool  in  a  damp 
location  is  unavoidable,  use  a  residual 
current device (RC D) protected supply.
  Use  of  RCD  reduces  the  risk  of  electrical 
shock.
Personal Safety
1)  Stay alert, watch what you are doing and 
use  common  sense  when  operating  a 
power tool. Do not use a power tool while 
you  are  tired  or  under  the  influence  of 
drugs, alcohol or medication.
  A  moment  of  inattention  while  operating 
power tools may result in personal injury.
2)   Use  safety  equipment.  Always  wear  eye 
protection.
  Safety  equipment  such  as  dust  mask,  non-
skid  safety  shoes,  hard  hat,  or  hearing 
protection  used  for  appropriate  conditions 
will reduce personal injuries.
3)   Avoid  accidental  starting.  Ensure  the 
switch  is  in  the  off  position  before 
plugging in.
  Carrying power tools with your finger on the 
switch  or  plugging  in  the  power  tools  that 
have the switch on invites accidents.

4) Do  not  overreach.  Keep  proper  footing 
and balance at all times.
  This  enables  better  control  of  the  power 
tool in unexpected situations.
5)  Dress  properly.  Do  not  wear  loose 
clothing  or  jewellery.  Keep  your  hair, 
clothing  and  gloves  away  from  moving 
parts.
  Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be 
caught in moving parts.
6)   I f   d e v i c e s   a r e   p r o v i d e d   f o r   t h e 
connection  of  dust  extraction  and 
collection  facilities,  ensure  these  are 
connected and properly used.
  Use  of  these  devices  can  reduce  dust 
related hazards.
Power Tool Use and Care
1) 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.
2)   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.
3)   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.
4)   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.
5)   M a i n t a i n   p o w e r   t o o l s .   C h e c k   f o r 
misalignment or binding of moving parts, 
breakage of parts and any other condition 
that may affect the power tools operation. 
If damaged, have the power tool repaired 
before use.
  Many  accidents  are  caused  by  poorly 
maintained power tools.
6)   Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
  Properly  maintained  cutting  tools  with  sharp 
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are 
easier to control. 7)
 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, 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.
Battery Tool Use and Care
1)   Ensure  the  switch  is  in  the  off  position 
before inserting battery pack.
  Inserting  battery  pack  into  power  tools  that 
have the switch on invites accidents.
2)   Recharge only with the charger specified 
by the manufacturer.
  A  charger  that  is  suitable  for  one  type  of 
battery  pack  may  create  a  risk  of  fire  when 
used with another battery pack.
3)   Use  power  tools  only  with  specifically 
designated battery packs.
  Use of any other battery packs may create a 
risk of injury and fire.
4)   When  battery  pack  is  not  in  use,  keep  it 
away from other metal objects like paper 
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other 
small  metal  objects  that  can  make  a 
connection from one terminal to another.
  Shorting  the  battery  terminals  together  may 
cause burns, or a fire.
5)   Under  abusive  conditions,  liquid  may 
be  ejected  from  battery;  avoid  contact. 
If  contact  accidentally  occurs,  flush  with 
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally 
seek medical help.
  Liquid  ejected  from  the  battery  may  cause 
irritation or burns.
Service
1) Have  your  power  tool  serviced  by  a 
qualified  repair  person  using  only 
identical replacement parts.
  This will ensure that the safety of power tool 
is maintained.

Forward/Reverse lever to the center position 
(switch lock).
7)   Do  not  strain  the  tool  by  holding  the  speed 
control trigger halfway (speed control mode) 
so that the motor stops. The protection circuit 
will  activate  and  may  prevent  speed  control 
operation. If this happens, release the speed 
control trigger and squeeze again for normal 
operation.
8)   Be careful not to get dust inside the chuck.
9)   Do not touch the rotating parts to avoid injury.
10)  Do  not  use  the  tool  continuously  for  a  long 
period of time. Stop using the tool from time 
to  time  to  avoid  temperature  rise  and  heat 
overload of the motor.
11)  Do not drop the tool.
