Electrical safety

The electric motor has been designed for one 
voltage only. Always check that the power supply 
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate. 

Using an extension lead 

Always use an approved extension lead suitable 
for the power input of this tool. Before use, inspect 
the extension lead for signs of damage, wear and 
ageing. Replace the extension lead if damaged or

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

1)   Work area safety 
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.

 Cluttered 

and dark areas invite accidents. 

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive 

atmospheres, such as in the presence of 

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.

and matching outlets will reduce risk of 
electric shock. 

b)

  A

void 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. 

e) Maintain power tools. Check for 

misalignment or binding of moving parts, 
breakage of parts and any other condition 
that may affect the power tools operation. 
If damaged, have the power tool repaired 
before use.

 Many accidents are caused by 

poorly maintained power tools. 

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.

Save all warnings and instructions for 
future reference. 

The term "power tool" 

in all of the warnings refers to your 
mains-operated (corded) power tool or 
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Check that the switch is in the “OFF” position 
before connecting to the power supply. Switch to 
“OFF” immediately after completion of the task. 
Keep the mains cable away from any moving parts 
or accessories. 
Never cover the ventilation slots in the tool. 

Additional Safety Instructions For 

Multi Function Tools

Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, 
when performing an operation where the cutting 
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own 
cord. 

Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire 

may make exposed metal parts of the power tool 
"live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

This appliance is not intended for 

use by persons 

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory 
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and 
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision 
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a 
person responsible for their safety.

Recommendations for the use of a residual 
current device 

with a rated residual current of 

30mA or less.

f)

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 

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. 

Personal 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.

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. 

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.

 Use of dust collection can reduce 

dust-related hazards. 

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 and in the manner intended 
for the particular type of power tool, 
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 

replacement parts.

 This will ensure that the 

safety of the power tool is maintained. 

b) If the supply cord is damaged, 

it must be 

replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent 
or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid 
a hazard.
