WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and all instructions�
Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious 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.
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 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.
