WARNING!
Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and
instructions for future reference.
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 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
4. 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.
5. 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
Personal Safety
1. 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.
2.
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.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position before connecting battery pack,
