SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General power tool safety warnings
Warning!
Read all safety warnings and
all instructions.
Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions listed below 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 listed
below 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 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 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.
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.
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 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-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.
