General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all

instructions. Failure to follow 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.

Work area safety

1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or

dark areas invite accidents.

2. 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.

3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

Rated voltage D.C. 18 V

GEA006-2

7. 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.

8. 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.

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

unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of an

GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

10.

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.

moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

11. 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.

12. 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.

13. 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.

14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

15. 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.

16. 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.

Power tool use and care

17. 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.

18. 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.

19. 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.

20. 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.

21. Maintain power tools. 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 before use. Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

22. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

23. 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.

Battery tool use and care

24. Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for

one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

25. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

26. 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.

27. 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.

Service

28. 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.

29. Follow instruction for lubricating and

changing accessories.

30. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
