1. Keep work areas clean.
Cluttered areas and benches can cause accidents.
2. Consider work area environment.
Do not expose your tool to high
humidity or rain. Do not use your tool in damp or wet conditions. Keep
the work area well lit. Do not use your tool where there is a risk of causing
fire or explosion, e.g. in the presence of flammable liquids and gases.
3. Keep children away.
Do not allow children, visitors or animals to
come near the work area or to touch the tool or power lead.
4. Dress appropriately.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, as these
can be caught in moving parts. Preferably wear non-slip footwear when
working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to keep long hair out
of the way.
5. Head protection.
Always use safety glasses. Use a face or dust mask
whenever the operations may produce dust or flying particles. Wear
ear protection whenever the sound level seems uncomfortable.
6. Guard against electric shock.
Prevent body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces (e.g. pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators).
Electric safety can be further improved by using a high sensitivity (30
mA / 30 mS) residual current device (RCD).
7. Do not overreach.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
8. Stay alert.
Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not
operate the tool when you are tired.
9. Secure work piece.
Use clamps or a vice to hold the work piece; it
is safer as it frees both hands to operate the tool.
10.Remove adjusting keys and wrenches.
Always check that adjusting
keys and wrenches are removed from the tool before operating the
tool.
11.Extension leads.
Before use inspect the extension leads and replace if
damaged. When using the tool outdoors, only use extension leads
intended for outdoor use and marked accordingly.
12.Use appropriate tool.
The intended use is described in this operation
manual. Do not force small tools or attachments to do the job of a
heavy duty tool. The tool will do the job better and safer at the rate
for which it was intended. Do not force the tool.
Warning!
The use of any accessory or attachment, or performance of
any operation with this tool other than those recommended in this
instruction manual may present a risk of personal injury
