GENERAL SAFETY RULES 

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. 

Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. 

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. 
 

WORK AREA SAFETY 

 

Keep work area clean and well lit.

 

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. 

 

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, 

gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. 

 

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.  Distractions can cause you to lose 

control. 

 

ELECTRICAL SAFETY 

 

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way

.

 Do not use any adapter 

plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk 

of electric shock. 

 

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and 

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

 

 

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the 

risk of electric shock. 

 

 Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep 

cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords   increase the 

risk of electric shock. 

 

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord 

suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock  

 

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter 

protected supply. 

 

PERSONAL SAFETY 

 

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use 

a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of 

inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. 

 

Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust 

mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will 

reduce personal injuries. 

 

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. 

 

 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.
