3.1.
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY
3.1.1.
Work area safety.
3.1.1.1.
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
3.1.1.2.
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.
3.1.1.3.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
3.1.2.
Electrical safety.
3.1.2.1.
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.
3.1.2.2.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
3.1.3.
Personal safety
3.1.3.1.
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 under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
3.1.3.2.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3.1.3.3.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure that the machine is switched OFF before
inserting the battery, picking up or carrying the power tool. Carrying the power tool with
your finger on the switch or fitting battery with the switch ON can cause accidents.
3.1.3.4.
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.
3.1.3.5.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
3.1.3.6.
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.
3.1.3.7.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards.
3.1.4.
Power tool use and care.
3.1.4.1.
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.
3.1.4.2.
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.
3.1.4.3.
Remove the battery from its compartment before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the power tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the power tool accidentally.
