• Any freely movable workpieces should be secured with a clamp or vice before starting work

• Always ensure that the lighting is adequate in the work area. Never remove your safety

goggles or glasses to improve your view instead increase the level of lighting or move the

lighting so it speciﬁcally illuminates the work area correctly

• DO NOT operate the power tool near ﬂammable materials. Be especially careful when

cutting wood and metal. Sparks from metal cutting are a common cause of wood dust ﬁres

• If batteries are to be charged outdoors, ensure that the power supply and charger are

protected against rain and moisture

• NEVER start the power tool while the blade or accessory is in contact with the workpiece,

and always allow the power tool to reach its full speed before making contact with the

workpiece. Use the variable speed control of the tool (if ﬁtted) to start the tool at the correct

speed for the accessory or blade ﬁtted

• DO NOT exert additional pressure on the body of the tool: allow the blade or accessory to

do the work. By not exerting additional pressure you maintain a safer stronger grip on the

power tool when it breaks through the material, as well as reducing wear on the power

tool which will extend the power tool’s service life. Additional pressure may also bend or

twist the accessory or blade which may cause it to break and cause injury. If the power

tool allows for being held with one or two hands hold with two hands whenever possible.

Always exercise caution when handling this power tool

• Sawing, cutting and abrasive actions create heat. This may affect the workpiece and power

tool. Always monitor the heat level and in the event of excessive heat switch off the power

tool and allow to cool before restarting work. Some power tools depending on design may

be more quickly and effectively cooled by running at high speed without load

• The power tool will draw in dust through the vents on its body. Excessive accumulation of

powdered metal may cause an electrical hazard and destroy the tool. Always ensure the

environment dust level is safe for the tool and ensure the vents are not blocked

• For mains-operated power tools, ensure the cable of the power tool is always kept behind

the tool and never close to where the accessory or blade is operating

• DO NOT reach under the workpiece, rest the workpiece on your body, or hold the workpiece

while working on it, as contact with the blade or accessory protruding from the workpiece

can result in serious injury

• Anti-vibration gloves should be worn when operating power tools that produce large

amount of vibration, especially during long-term use

• For power tools with a rotating mechanism and accessories ensure the operator is not

wearing clothes or gloves with frayed threads, cords etc. that could be entangled in the

rotating mechanism dragging the operator’s hand into the rotating accessory causing injury.

ALWAYS wear tight ﬁtting work clothes, safety shoes. Remove jewellery and secure long

hair. Never wear fabric-based gloves that can produce strands of material when operating

this type of power tool

• DO NOT allow sanding sheets to wear away on the sanding pad. This will damage the

surface of the pad requiring replacement and may cause parts of the sanding sheet to ﬂy

off the pad, causing operator injury

• DO NOT touch the moving sanding sheet

• Wire brush bristles are thrown by the brush even during ordinary operation. DO NOT

overstress the wires by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles can easily

penetrate light clothing and skin

Note: The tool must ONLY be used for its intended purpose. Any use other than those

mentioned in this manual will be considered a case of misuse. The operator, and not the

manufacturer, shall be liable for any damage or injury resulting from such cases of misuse. The

manufacturer shall not be liable for any modiﬁcations made to the tool, nor for any damage

resulting from such modiﬁcations.

Battery Charger Safety

Use the battery charger correctly

• Refer to the section of this manual relating to use of the battery charger before attempting

to charge the battery.

• Do not attempt to use the charger with any batteries other than those supplied. Keep your

battery charger clean; foreign objects or dirt may cause a short or block air vents. Failure to

follow these instructions may cause overheating or ﬁre

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or

similarly qualiﬁed persons in order to avoid a hazard

• Examine the battery charger regularly for damage, especially the cord, plug and enclosure.

If the battery charger is damaged, it must not be used until it has been repaired

Warning: Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries

Use batteries correctly

• Only charge batteries using the charger provided. Only use batteries provided with this

power tool, or others recommended by the supplier. Keep batteries clean; foreign objects or

dirt may cause a short. Allow batteries to cool for 15 minutes after charging or heavy use.

Failure to follow these instructions may cause overheating or ﬁre.

• When not in use batteries should be stored at room temperature (approx. 20˚C). Ensure that

batteries cannot accidentally short in storage.

Battery and charger safety features

The battery and charger are ﬁtted with a number of safety features which may be triggered

during charging or operation:

• Over-charge protection: Charger automatically switches off when the battery has reached

full charge capacity, protecting the internal components of the battery

• Over-discharge protection: Prevents the battery from discharging beyond the recommended

lowest safety voltage

• Over-heat protection: Sensor switches off if the battery becomes too hot during operation.

This can happen if the tool is overloaded or being used for extended periods of time. Up to

30 minutes’ cooling time may be required depending on the ambient temperature

• Overload protection: Battery temporarily stops if it is overloaded or the maximum current

draw is exceeded, protecting the internal components. The battery will resume normal

operation when the current draw returns to a normal safe level. This may take a few

seconds

• Short circuit protection: The battery will stop working immediately if a short circuit occurs,

this prevents damage to the battery or tool

WARNING: When used in Australia or New Zealand, it is recommended that this tool is ALWAYS

supplied via Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30mA or less.
