INTENDED USE
Only operates the power tool/machine for its intended purpose and within the parameters specified in this manual. This power tool/machine is for domestic use only. Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces. This power tool/machine is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless supervised or given appropriate instruction concerning the product’s use by a person responsible for their safety.
GENERAL PRECAUTION Do not allow it to be used as a toy. Children should
be supervised to ensure they do not play with the power tool/machine. If the
power tool/machine is not functioning properly, has been dropped, damaged,
left outdoors, or immersed in liquid, do not use it, contact DOMU Brands
Customer Services.
Do not use the power tool/machine if any parts appear to be faulty, missing,
or damaged. Ensure all parts are securely attached before use.
RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY Avoids 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. Prevent
unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before
connecting to the power source and/ or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch, or energizing
power tools that are switched on invites accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks that may ignite
dust or fumes. Always wear eye protection. Any power tool can throw foreign
objects into your eyes and cause permanent eye damage. Always wear safety
goggles (not glasses) that comply with ANSI safety standard Z87.1. Everyday
glasses have only impact-resistant lenses.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the power
tools will increase the risk of electric shock. Stay alert, watch what you are
doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool/machine.
Do not use a power tool/machine while you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating a power
tool/machine may result in serious personal injury. Use personal protective
equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. Prevent unintentional
starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to a
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying a
power tool/machine with your finger on the switch or energizing a power
tool/machine that has the switch on invites accidents. Remove any adjusting
key or spanner before turning the power tool/machine on.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool/machine in unexpected situations. Dress
appropriately.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in
moving parts. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction
and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. The
use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
WORK AREA SAFETY Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools/machines in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools/machines create
sparks that may ignite dust or fumes. Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool/machine. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
GENERAL POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool/machine. Use the correct power tool/machine for
your application. The correct power tool/machine will do the job better and
safer at the rate at which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool/machine if the switch does not turn on and off. Any
power tool/machine 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/machine before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tool/machine tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool/machine accidentally.
Store idle power tool/machine out of the reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool/ machine or these instructions to
operate the power tool/ machine.
Power tools/machines are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. Maintain
power tools/machines. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the power
tool/machine’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool/machines repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools/machines. 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/machine accessories and tool bits in accordance with these
instructions, and take into account the working conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool/machine for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Never soak or immerse electrical components and or a component that has a plug
attached. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting- the power tool accidentally. Ensure the motor has
fully stopped before cleaning, clearing a blockage, checking, or carrying out
any maintenance on the tool. Maintain your power tool.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired by a qualified repair person 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. Regularly check
external nuts and fixings to ensure vibration caused by normal use has not
begun to loosen them.
Store idle power tools out of reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the Breaker.
Locate the power tool out of reach of children, in a dry, locked unit. Make
sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over,
or otherwise subjected to damage or stress. Remove the plug from the main
socket/battery (where applicable) before carrying out any adjustment or
maintenance.
Always store the power tool/machine in a dry place. If the power cord is
damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified service technician.
Keep the ventilation slots and motor housing as free of dirt and dust as
possible (where applicable). Clean the power tool/machine by rubbing it with a
clean cloth and blowing it clean using low-pressure compressed air is
recommended.
