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 dust mask, non-skid 
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing 
protection used for appropriate 
conditions will reduce personal 
injuries.

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 unexpected 
situations. 

f)  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.

g)  If devices are provided for the 

connection of dust extraction and 
collection facilities, ensure these 
are connected and properly used. 

Use of these devices can reduce 
dust-related hazards.

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 the 
battery pack from the power tool 
before making any adjustments, 
changing accessories, or storing 
power tools. 

Such preventive 

safety measures reduce the 
risk of starting the power tool 
accidentally. 

d)  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. 

e)  Maintain power tools. Check 
for misalignment or binding of 
moving parts, breakage of parts 
and any other condition that may
