2.4 WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of fl ammable 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.
2.5 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• 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.
Unmodifi ed
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 a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• 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.
2.6 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
infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
• 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.
• 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 fi nger on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
