General power tool safety warnings
@
Warning! Read all safety warnings and
all instructions.
Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
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.
1. 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.
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.
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.
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. 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.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
