As part of our ongoing product development, specifications of

Silverline products may alter without notice.

Carefully read and understand this manual and any label attached to
the tool before use. Keep these instructions with the product for future
reference. Ensure all persons who use this product are fully acquainted
with this manual.

Even when used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk
factors. Use with caution. If you are at all unsure of the correct and safe
manner in which to use this tool, do not attempt to use it.

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

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

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

NOTE: The term “residual current device (RCD)” may be replaced by
the term “ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)” or “earth leakage
circuit breaker (ELCB)”.

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

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

300W Inverter

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

Power Tool Use & 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 tool’s 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

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

Consignes générales de
sécurité relatives aux appareils
électriques

AVERTISSEMENT Veuillez lire l’intégralité des consignes de sécurité
et des instructions. Le non-respect de ces consignes et instructions peut

entraîner un risque de choc électrique, d’incendie et/ou se traduire par des
blessures graves

Veuillez conserver ces instructions et consignes de sécurité pour
référence ultérieure.

L’expression « appareil électrique » employée dans les présentes consignes
recouvre aussi bien les appareils filaires à brancher sur le secteur que les
appareils sans fils fonctionnant sous batterie.

Sécurité sur la zone de travail

a) Maintenir une zone de travail propre et bien éclairée. Des zones

encombrées et mal éclairées sont sources d’accidents.

b) Ne pas utiliser d’outils électriques dans des environnements

explosifs, tels qu’à proximité de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières
inflammables. Les appareils électriques produisent des étincelles

susceptibles d’enflammer la poussière ou les vapeurs présentes.

c) Eloigner les enfants et les passants pendant l’utilisation d’un

appareil électrique. Ceux-ci peuvent provoquer une perte d’attention

et faire perdre la maîtrise de l’appareil.

Sécurité électrique

a) La prise d’un appareil électrique doit être adaptée à la prise du

secteur. Ne jamais modifier la prise en aucune façon. Ne jamais
utiliser d’adaptateur sur la prise électrique d’appareil mis à la
terre. Des prises non modifiées, adaptées aux boîtiers de prise de

courant, réduiront le risque de décharge électrique.

b) Eviter le contact corporel avec les surfaces mises à la terre telles

que tuyaux, radiateurs, cuisinières et réfrigérateurs. Le risque de

décharge électrique est plus important si le corps est mis à la terre.

c) Ne pas exposer l’appareil électrique à la pluie ou à l’humidité.

L’infiltration d’eau dans un appareil électrique accroît le risque de
décharge électrique.

d) Ne pas maltraiter le cordon électrique. Ne jamais utiliser le

cordon électrique pour porter, tirer ou débrancher l’appareil.
Protéger le cordon électrique de la chaleur, du contact avec
l’essence, des bords tranchants et pièces rotatives. Un cordon

électrique endommagé ou entortillé accroît le risque de décharge
électrique.

e) Lors d’une utilisation de l’appareil électrique en extérieur, se

servir d’une rallonge appropriée à une utilisation en extérieur.

Cela réduit le risque de décharge électrique.

f) Si une utilisation de l’appareil électrique dans un environnement

humide ne peut être évitée, utiliser une alimentation protégée par
un disjoncteur différentiel. L’utilisation d’un disjoncteur différentiel

réduit le risque de décharge électrique.

Sécurité des personnes

a) Rester vigilent et faire preuve de bon sens lors de la manipulation

de l’appareil. Ne pas utiliser un appareil électrique lorsque l’on
se trouve dans un état de fatigue, ou sous l’influence de drogues,
d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un moment d’inattention pendant

l’utilisation d’un outil électrique peut se traduire par des blessures
graves.

b) Porter un équipement de protection approprié. Toujours porter
