GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

1) 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.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

1.

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.

2.

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.

3.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

 

Water entering a 

power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

4.

Do not abuse the cable. Never use the cable for carrying, pulling or 
unplugging the power tool. Keep cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or 
moving parts.

 

Damaged or entangled cables increase the risk of electric 

shock.

5.

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable suitable for 
outdoor use. 

Use of a cable suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of 

electric shock.

6.

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

1.

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 

WARNING: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW ALL 
INSTRUCTIONS LISTED BELOW MAY RESULT IN ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE AND/
OR SERIOUS INJURY. THE TERM “POWER TOOL” IN THE WARNINGS REFERS
