SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety
warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or seri-
ous injury.
ATTENTION: Save all warnings
and instructions for future refer-
ence.
The term ‘power tool’ in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool .
1) Work area safety
a)
Keep work area clean and well
lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents .
b)
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 .
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.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock .
b)
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 .
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 and
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 .
f)
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 .
g)
Make sure you have a proper
connection of the tool at a socket
outlet.
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 you are tired or
under the influence of 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-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 .
