Sound and vibration levels in the specification are determined according to
EN60745 or similar international standards. The figures represent normal use for
the tool in normal working conditions. A poorly maintained, incorrectly assembled,
or misused tool, may produce increased levels of noise and vibration.
www.osha.europa.eu
provides information on sound and vibration levels in the
workplace that may be useful to domestic users who use tools for long periods
of time.
General Safety
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.
WARNING: This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced, physical or mental capabilities or lack of experience
or knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
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 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.
4) 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.
5) 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.
Additional Safety for Routers
WARNING
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the
cutter may contact its own cord.
Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by your hand or against
the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by
the manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.
• It is strongly recommended that the tool always be supplied via a
residual current device with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
a)
Use safety equipment including safety goggles or shield, ear protection,
dust mask and protective clothing including safety gloves
b)
Cloths, cord, string etc should never be left around the work area
c)
Ensure the mains supply voltage is the same as the tool rating plate
voltage
d)
Ensure any cable extensions used with this tool are in a safe electrical
condition, and have the correct ampere rating for the tool
e)
Completely unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential overheating
f)
Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility cables or pipes are
below the surface of the work area.
Consult utility companies for assistance
if necessary. Contact with electric cables can lead to electric shock and fire.
Damaging a gas pipe can lead to explosion. Contact with water lines can lead
to major property damage
g)
Ensure embedded objects such as nails and screws have been removed
from the workpiece before commencing operation
h)
Handle router bits with care as they can be extremely sharp
i)
Before use, check the bit carefully for signs of damage or cracks.
Replace damaged or cracked bits immediately
j)
Ensure router cutters/bits are sharp and maintained correctly.
Dull cutting
edges can lead to uncontrolled situations including stalling, increased heat
and possible injury
k)
ALWAYS use both handles and maintain a firm grip on the router before
proceeding with any work
l)
Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean and free of oil and grease
to ensure the tool can be securely held in use
