SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

ENA001-2

WARNING:

When using electric tools, basic safety precautions, including the following,
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and
personal injury. Read all these instructions before operating this product
and save these instructions.

For safe operations:

1.

Keep work area clean.

Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.

2.

Consider work area environment.

Do not expose power tools to rain. Do not use
power tools in damp or wet locations. Keep work
area well lit. Do not use power tools where there is
risk to cause fire or explosion.

3.

Guard against electric shock.

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur-
faces (e.g. pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerators).

4.

Keep children away.

Do not let visitors touch the tool or extension cord.
All visitors should be kept away from work area.

5.

Store idle tools.

When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry,
high or locked up place, out of reach of children.

6.

Do not force the tool.

It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it was intended.

7.

Use the right tool.

Do not force small tools or attachments to do the job
of a heavy duty tool. Do not use tools for purposes
not intended; for example, do not use circular saws
to cut tree limbs or logs.

8.

Dress properly.

Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, they can be
caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid
footwear are recommended when working outdoors.
Wear protecting hair covering to contain long hair.

9.

Use safety glasses and hearing protection.

Also use face or dust mask if the cutting operation is
dusty.

10.

Connect dust extraction equipment.

If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities ensure these are
connected and properly used.

11.

Do not abuse the cord.

Never carry the tool by the cord or yank it to discon-
nect it from the socket. Keep the cord away from
heat, oil and sharp edges.

12.

Secure work.

Use clamps or a vice to hold the work. It is safer
than using your hand and it frees both hands to
operate the tool.

13.

Do not overreach.

Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

14.

Maintain tools with care.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean for better and
safer performance. Follow instructions for lubrica-

tion and changing accessories. Inspect tool cord
periodically and if damaged have it repaired by an
authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords
periodically and replace, if damaged. Keep handles
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

15.

Disconnect tools.

When not in use, before servicing and when chang-
ing accessories such as blades, bits and cutters.

16.

Remove adjusting keys and wrenches.

Form the habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool
before turning it on.

17.

Avoid unintentional starting.

Do not carry a plugged-in tool with a finger on the
switch. Ensure switch is off when plugging in.

18.

Use outdoor extension leads.

When tool is used outdoors, use only extension
cords intended for outdoor use.

19.

Stay alert.

Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do
not operate tool when you are tired.

20.

Check damaged parts.

Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully checked to
determine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, free running of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting and any other conditions that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced
by an authorized service center unless otherwise
indicated in this instruction manual. Have defective
switches replaced by an authorized service facility.
Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on
and off.

21.

Warning.

The use of any accessory or attachment, other than
those recommended in this instruction manual or
the catalog, may present a risk of personal injury.

22.

Have your tool repaired by a qualified person.

This electric tool is in accordance with the relevant
safety requirements. Repairs should only be carried
out by qualified persons using original spare parts,
otherwise this may result in considerable danger to
the user.
