General Safety Instructions
When using any electrical power tool, basic safety precautions should always be
followed including:
Always ensure the voltage on the rating label corresponds to the voltage in
your home.
Check the power cord and plug regularly for any damage. If the cord or the
plug is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified electrician or a service
repair centre. If in doubt please contact our customer service team.
The power tool is intended for domestic use only. Industrial or commercial
use will void the warranty. The supplier cannot be held responsible for injury
or damage if the power tool has been used for anything other than its
intended use.
Incorrect operation and use can damage the power tool and cause injury to
the user.
Do not use the appliance if it has been dropped or damaged in anyway. If the
unit has been damaged take the unit for examination and or repair by an
authorised service agent.
Do not immerse or expose the motor assembly, plug or the power cord in
water or any other liquid for any reason.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or by
someone who is suitably qualified to avoid a potential hazard.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, ensure that the extension cord is
equal to or greater than the power consumption of the appliance to avoid
overheating of the appliance and the extension cord. Do not use any other
power tool or appliance on the extension cord. Do not place the extension
cord in a position where it can be pulled on by children or animals or be
tripped over. Ensure the extension cord is suitable for outdoor use.
Always remove the plug of the power tool safely. Do not pull on the power
tool cord to remove the plug from the electrical socket.
Never handle or operate the power tool with wet hands.
