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.
g.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of these devices
can reduce dust-related hazards.
h.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety principles.
A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
TOOL USE AND CARE
a.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
b.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application.
The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
c.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off.
A tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
d.
Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off
position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the
tool.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
e.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons.
Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
f.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
g.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
h.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these
