SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Dark areas invite accidents.
b. DO NOT operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids or gases.
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 power outlet. NEVER modify the plug
in any way. DO NOT use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching power 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 cable. Never use the cable for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cable away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cables increase the risk
of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension lead suitable
for outdoor use. Use of a cable 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.
