c)
Keep children and other
people away while you are
operating the electrical tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control of
the device.
2.
Electrical safety
To avoid danger to life from
electric shock:
a)
The mains plug on the device must match
the mains socket. The plug must not
be modified in any way. Do not use
an adapter plug with devices fitted
with a protective earth.
Unmodified
plugs and matching sockets reduce the risk of
electric shock.
b)
avoid touching earthed surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ovens and refrig-
erators with any part of your body.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed.
c)
Keep the device away from
rain or moisture.
Water entering
an electrical device increases the
risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not use the mains lead for
any purpose for which it was
not intended, e.g. to carry the
device, to hang up the device or to pull
the mains plug out of the mains socket.
Keep the mains lead away from heat,
oil, sharp edges or moving parts of the
device.
Damaged or tangled mains leads
increase the risk of electric shock.
e)
When working outdoors with an electri-
cal power tool always use extension ca-
bles that are also approved for use out-
doors.
The use of an extension cable suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f)
Use a residual current device (rCD)
for protection if operating the electri-
cal power tool in a moist environ-
ment is unavoidable.
The use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a)
remain alert at all times, watch what
you are doing and always proceed
with caution. Do not use the device if
you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication.
One
moment of carelessness when using the device
can lead to serious injury.
b)
Wear personal protective
equipment and always wear
safety glasses.
The wearing of
personal protective equipment such as dust
masks, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmets or
ear protectors, appropriate to the type of elec-
trical power tool used and work undertaken,
reduces the risk of injury.
c)
avoid unintentional operation of the
device. Check that the electrical pow-
er tool is switched off before you
connect it to the mains, pick it up or
carry it.
Accidents can happen if you carry
the device with your finger on the On / OFF
switch or with the device switched on.
d)
remove any setting tools or span-
ners before you switch the device on.
A tool or spanner left attached to a rotating
part of a device can lead to injury.
e)
avoid placing your body in an unnat-
ural position. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times.
By doing this
you will be in a better position to control the
device in unforeseen circumstances.
f)
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves clear of mov-
ing parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery or long
hair can become trapped in moving parts.
g)
If vacuum dust extraction and collec-
tion devices are fitted do not forget to
check that they are properly connected
and correctly used.
The use of these de-
vices reduces the hazard presented by dust.
