GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this
power tool.
Failure to follow all 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 the warnings 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 a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
