Safety Notes

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING

the warnings and instructions may result in elec­tric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.

The term “power tool” in the warnings 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. Clut-

tered 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. Distrac-

tions 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 and moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.

Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow

e) When operating a power tool outdoors,

use an extension cord suitable for out­door use. Use of a cord suitable for out-

door use reduces the risk of electric
shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp loca-

tion 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. Al-

ways 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.

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 fin-

ger on the switch or energising power
tools that have the switch on invites acci­dents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench be-

fore 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 cloth-

ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
