clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.

hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc., in accordance with
these instructions and in the manner
intended for the particular type of
electric shock.
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.
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.
Always use tool in conjunction with a
residual circuit breaker device

use of a residual circuit breaker device
reduced the risk of electric shock
3. Personal safety
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.
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.
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.
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.
Do not over reach.
Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery.
