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 tool may result in personal 

injury.

Do not overreach.  Keep proper footing and balance 

at all times. 

 

This enable better control of the power 

tool in unexpected situations.

Dress  properly.    Do  not  wear  loose  clothing  or 

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away 

from moving parts.

 

Loose clothes, jewellery or long 

hair can be caught in moving parts. 

If devices are provided for the connection of dust 

extraction  and  collection  facilities,  ensure  these 

are connected and properly use. 

 

Use of these devices 

can reduce dust related hazards.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

Do not force the power tool.  Use the correct power 

tool for your application. 

 

The correct power tool will 

do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was 

designed.

Do  not  use  the  power  tool  if  the  switch  does  not 

turn  it  on  and  off. 

 

Any  power  tool  that  can  not  be 

controlled  with  the  switch  is  dangerous  and  must  be 

repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power source before 

making  any  adjustments,  changing  accessories, 

or storing the power tools. 

 

Such preventive safety 

measures  reduce  the  risk  of  starting  the  power  tool 

accidentally.

Store idle power tools out of the reach of children 

and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power 

tool  or  these  instructions  to  operate  the  power 

tool.   

Power  tools  are  dangerous  in  the  hands  of 

untrained users. 

Maintain power tools.  Check for misalignment or 

binding  of  moving  parts,  breakage  of  parts  and 

any other condition that may affect the power tools 

operation.  If damaged, have the power tool repaired 

before  use. 

 

Many  accidents  are  caused  by  poorly 

maintained power tools.

Keep  cutting  tools  sharp  and  clean. 

 

Properly 

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are 

less likely to bind and are easier to control.

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc., 

in  accordance  with  these  instructions  and  in  the 

manner  intended  for  the  particular  type  of  power 

tool,  taking  into  account  the  working  conditions 

and  the  work  to  be  performed. 

 

Use  of  the  power 

tool for operations different from intended could result 

in a hazardous situation.

The  appliance  is  not  intended  for  use    by  young 

children or infirm presons without supervision.
Young  children  should  be  supervised  to  ensure 

that  they do not play with the appliance/charger

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

WORK AREA

Keep work area clean and well lit.

  

Cluttered and dark 

areas invites 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 adaptor 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 cord suitable of 

outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. 

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 safety equipment.  Always wear eye protection. 

 

Safety equipment such as dusk mask, non-skid safety 

shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate 

conditions will reduce personal injuries.

Avoid  accidental  starting.    Ensure  the  switch  is  in 

the off position before plugging in.  

Carrying power 

tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power 

tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
