General Safety 

m

WARNING!

 

When using cordless yard tools, basic 

safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the 

risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including 

 

the following:

Work Area Safety

1.  Keep work area clean and well lit – 

Cluttered or dark 

areas invite accidents.

2.  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. 

3. 

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a 

power tool – Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electric Safety

1.

  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.

2.

  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.

3.  Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions 

– Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of 

electric shock.

4.

  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.

5.

  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.

6.

  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.
