General safety rules
WARNING Read all instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. 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.
Save these instructions
1. Work area a. Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered and 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.
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 safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in 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 these devices
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.
5
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source 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 and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, 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 safety rules for drills
Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to noise
can cause hearing loss.
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
If possible, always use clamps or a vice to hold
your work.
Always switch off before you put the drill down.
Ensure that the lighting is adequate.
Do not put pressure on the drill, such that it slows the
motor down. Allow the drill bit to cut without pressure. You will get better results and you will be taking better care of your tool.
Keep the area free of tripping hazards.
Do not let anyone under 18 years operate this tool.
Only use accessory bits in good condition.
Before drilling, check that there is sufficient clearance for
the drill bit under the workpiece.
Do not touch the bit after operation. It will be very hot.
Keep your hands away from under the workpiece.
Never use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste
close by the bit.
Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should never be left
around the work area.
Support the work properly.
If you are interrupted when operating the drill, complete
the process and switch off before looking up.
Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings are
properly tightened.
When using the drill, use safety equipment including
safety glasses or shield, ear protectors, and protective clothing including safety gloves. Wear a dust mask if the drilling operation creates dust.
