Safety instructions
WARNING.
Read and understand all instructions.

in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term
“power tool” in all of the warnings below refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Save these instructions
Work area
•
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered and
dark areas invite accidents.
•
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.
•
Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
Electrical safety
•
If cordset is damaged, have it replaced by an
authorised service centre.
•
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.
•
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.
•
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk 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
outdoor extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
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 a dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection use.
•
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 tool on
. A wrench or a key that is left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
•
Do not overreach.
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. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
•
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities ensure that
these are connected and properly used
. Use of
these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
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 tool’s
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 power
tool, taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.
Use of the power
tool for operations different from intended could result
in a hazardous situation.
