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 energizing power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.

or a key 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 these are connected and properly used.
Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards
