Safety instructions

General power tool safety warnings

Warning! Read all safety warnings and

all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions listed below may result in electric shock, ﬁre and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety

a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered

or dark areas invite accidents.

b. 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.

c. Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

a. 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.

b. 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.

c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

d. 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.

e. 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.

f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

a. 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 serious personal injury.

b. Use personal protective equipment. Always

wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

ENGLISH

c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the

switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your ﬁnger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f. 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.

g. If devices are provided for the connection of

dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

4. Power tool use and care

a. 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.

b. 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.

c. 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.

d. 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.

e. Maintain power tools. Check for 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.

f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits

etc. in accordance with these instructions, 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.

5. 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.

Additional power tool safety warnings

Warning! Additional safety instructions

for heat guns.

Warning: Do not use outdoors, indoor use only. Warning: This appliance must be placed on its

stand when not in use.

ENGLISH

Warning: A ﬁre may result if the appliance is not used with care, therefore be careful when using the appliance in places where there are combustible materials.

• Do not apply heat to the same place for a

long time.

• Do not use in presence of an explosive

atmosphere.

• Be aware that heat may be conducted to

combustible materials that are out of sight.

• Place the appliance on its stand after use

and allow it to cool down before storage.

• Do not leave the appliance unattended when

it is switched on.

• Do not obstruct either the air intake slots or

the nozzle outlet as this may cause excessive heat build up resulting in damage to the appliance.

• Do not direct the hot air ﬂow at other people

or animals.

• Do not touch the nozzle as it becomes very

hot during use and remains hot for up to 30 minutes after use.

• Do not place the nozzle against any object

during or immediately after use.

• Do not poke anything down the nozzle as it

could give you an electric shock.

• Do not look down the nozzle while the

appliance is switched on.

• Do not use the appliance as a hair dryer! The

air temperature is far higher than a hardware.

• Ensure adequate ventilation during use as

toxic fumes may be produced.

• Do not use the appliance in a damp

atmosphere.

• When stripping paint, ensure that the work

area is enclosed. Wear a dust mask speciﬁcally designed for protection against lead paint dust and fumes and ensure that persons within or entering the work area are also protected.

• Do not burn paint, as it could cause a ﬁre

hazard.

• Do not allow paint to adhere to the nozzle as

it could ignite after some time.

• Switch off the appliance and allow it to cool

before ﬁtting any accessory.

Stripping lead-based paint

• Extreme care should be taken when stripping

paint. The peelings, residue and vapours of paint may contain lead, which is poisonous. Any pre-1960 building may in the past have been painted with paint containing lead. This paint may be covered with additional layers of paint. Once deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result in the ingestion of lead.

• Exposures to even low levels of lead can

cause irreversible brain and nervous system damage. The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and pregnant women.

• Before starting work, it is important to

determine whether the paint to be stripped contains lead. This can be done using a test kit or by a professional decorator. Do not smoke, eat or drink in a work area that could or may be contaminated by lead. Lead based paints should only be removed by a professional and should not be removed using a heat gun.

ENGLISH

Safety of others

• This appliance is not intended for use by

persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that

they do not play with the appliance.

Residual risks

Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
