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-
