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
ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) or Residual Current Device
(RCD) protected supply.
Use of a GFCI or RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
g. Test GFCI/RCD before each use. See label on GFCI/RCD for test procedure
* Item above: “Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.” is
applicable to power tools in general; however,
the ICS 536-E power cutter
has been specifically designed for operation during exposure to rain or wet
conditions.
** Item above: “If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable,
use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) or Residual Current Device
(RCD) protected supply”; is applicable however,
the ICS 536-E power cutter has
been designed with an integrated GFCI/RCD, which must not be removed or disabled.
Keep the GFCI/RCD out of water.
***Only use extension cords that are protected by a GFCI/RCD.
The GFCI/RCD on
the machine power cord will not prevent electrical shock from the extension cords.
