d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car-
rying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving
parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of elect-
ric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
The use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
f) If the operation of a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual current
device (RCD) protected supply.
The use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
2.1.3 Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon 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.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-slip
safety shoes and hearing protection used for appro-
priate 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 fi nger on the switch
or energising power tools that have the switch on invi-
tes accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turn-
ing 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 unex
pected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or je
wellery. 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 that
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Be careful not develop a false sense of safety, and
do not exceed the applicable safety rules for elec-
trical tools, even if you are familiar with the electri-
cal tool after using it many times.
Careless handling can lead to severe injuries within
fractions of a second.
2.1.4 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 conditions that may aff ect the power
tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained pow-
er tools.
