Residual Risks - DeWalt DCW604 Original Instructions Manual

EnGLIsH
b ) Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.
c ) 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.
d ) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the 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.
e ) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged
or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
f ) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 130 °C may cause explosion.
g ) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
6) Service
a ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
b ) Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
Additional Specific Safety Rules for
Compact Routers
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
• DO NOT cut metal.
Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean, and
•
free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of
the tool.
Maintain firm grip with both hands on the tool to resist
•
starting torque. Maintain a firm grip on the tool at all times
while operating.
Always follow the bit manufacturer's speed
•
recommendations as some bit designs require specific
speeds for safety or performance. If you are unsure of the
proper speed or are experiencing any type of problem, contact
the bit manufacturer.
• Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach under
the workpiece for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in
contact with the workpiece when cutting.
36
Never run the motor unit when it is not inserted in one of
•
the router bases. The motor is not designed to be handheld.
• Keep cutting pressure constant. Do not overload motor.
Use sharp bits. Dull bits may cause the router to swerve or
•
stall under pressure.
• Be sure that the motor has stopped completely before
you lay the router down. If the bit is still spinning when the
tool is laid down, it could cause injury or damage.
• Be sure that the router bit is clear of the workpiece
before starting the motor. If the bit is in contact with the
workpiece when the motor starts it could make the router
jump, causing damage or injury.
• ALWAYS remove the battery before making adjustments
or changing bits.
Keep hands clear of bits when motor is running to
•
prevent personal injury.
Never touch the bit immediately after use. It may be
•
extremely hot.
Provide clearance under workpiece for router bit when
•
through‑cutting.
Tighten collet nut securely to prevent the bit
•
from slipping.
• Never tighten collet nut without a bit.
Do not use router bits with a diameter in excess of
•
30 mm in this tool.
Avoid climb‑cutting (cutting in direction opposite than
•
shown in Figure O). Climb‑cutting increases the chance
for loss of control resulting in possible injury. When
climb-cutting is required (backing around a corner), exercise
extreme caution to maintain control of router. Make smaller
cuts and remove minimal material with each pass.
• Always use straight-cutters, rabbet-cutters, profile cutters,
slotter cutters or grooved knives with a shank diameter that
corresponds to the size of the collet in your tool.
• Always use bits suitable for a speed of min. 30000 min
marked accordingly.
Do not hand‑hold the router in an upside‑down or
•
horizontal position. The motor can separate from the base if
not properly attached according to the instructions.
• Before starting the motor clear the work area of all
foreign objects.
Do not use in a router table.
•
Always keep the chip shield (if included) clean and
•
in place.
Do not press spindle lock button while the motor is
•
running. Doing so can damage the spindle lock.
• Always make sure the work surface is free from nails and
other foreign objects. Cutting into a nail can cause the bit
and the tool to jump.
