Technical and legal information
Electrical safety
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.
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.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
>
Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
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.
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.
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.
Personal safety
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.
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.
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.
