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.
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.
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 connecting to power source and/or battery pack,
picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d)
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.
e)
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f)
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.
g)
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
a)
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.
b)
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
c)
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d)
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.
e)
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect
the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
f)
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g)
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance
with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
WARNING:
When used in Australia or New Zealand, it is recommended that
this tool is ALWAYS supplied via Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated
residual current of 30mA or less.
Service
a)
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using
only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
Grinding Tool Safety
• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment. When using a
grinder, adequate eye protection, ear defenders and breathing protection
must be worn
• When operating the grinder, it is a legal requirement that the correct type
of guard is installed for each application to prevent injury. For example,
a cutting guard must be installed when using a cutting or diamond disc,
and a grinding guard must be used with grinding discs
• Reset the guard if the work angle or the position of the person operating
the machine changes. Seek professional guidance if you are unsure
how to operate the guards or any other safety features of the machine
correctly
• DO NOT
operate a grinder without the appropriate guards in place
• Grinding tool accessories must be mounted, used and stored in
compliance with the manufacturer’s recommendations
• Use plain or centre-recessed cutting or grinding discs in sizes stated
in this instruction manual. Attempting to use any other accessory or
attachment is extremely dangerous and could lead to serious injury
• Use the correct type of cutting or grinding disc for the task and material
being worked on. Check the label on the disc or accessory to find out if it
is appropriate to use on the workpiece.
• The maximum speed of the cutting/grinding disc or other accessory must
always be higher than the maximum speed of the machine on which
they are mounted
• Do not use any form of spacers or adapters in an attempt to make an
incorrectly sized disc fit your machine
• Ensure that the cutting/grinding disc or accessory is fitted correctly and
securely before use. Run the machine with the disc or accessory fitted,
but without load, for a reasonable time before attempting to cut/grind. If
excessive vibration occurs, stop the machine, investigate and correct the
cause before use. Seek professional guidance if you are in doubt about
how to operate the machine safely
• All discs and accessories must be checked before installation. If a disc
is damaged in any way, such as by being chipped, fractured, warped or
misshapen, DO NOT USE AND DISCARD. If you are unsure about whether
a disc is safe to operate, DO NOT USE AND DISCARD
• Always ensure that accessories are suitable to use. Check the expiry date
on the label. Resin-based and other grinding and cutting discs CANNOT
SAFELY BE USED beyond their expiry date
• Do not allow discs to become wet or contaminated with oil. If you suspect
that a disc has degraded in storage, or if you are unsure about whether
its expiry date has passed, DO NOT USE AND DISCARD
• Do not attempt to cut or grind magnesium or any alloy that has high
magnesium content
