ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: 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.

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.

1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. 

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) 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.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. 

Distractions can 

cause you to lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) 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.

b) 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.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. 

Water entering a power tool will 

increase the risk of electric shock.

d) 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.

e) 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. 

f)  If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current 
device (RCD) protected supply.

 Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. 

3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) 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. 

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. 

Protective equipment 

such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate 
conditions will reduce personal injuries. 

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
