GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
(For All Power Tools)
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
personal injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool
or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
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.
Electrical Safety
4.
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in anyway. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
5.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk o electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
6.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
7.
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.
8.
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.
9.
If operating a power in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
NOTE: The term “residual current device (RCD)” may be replaced by the term “ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI)” or “earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)”.
Personal Safety
10.
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.
11.
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.
12.
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.
13.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the tool on.
A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
14.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
15.
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.
16.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
Power Tool Use and Care
17.
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.
18.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off.
Any power tool that cannot be
