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 balance at all
times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unex-
pected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.
Keep your hair and clothing 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 con-
nected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools
allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety
principles.
A careless action can cause severe
injury within a fraction of a second.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND 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
remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool
