General safety instructions for power tools
WARNING:
Read all safety instructions and other instructions. If safety instructions
and other instructions are not followed, this may cause an electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury. Save all safety instructions and other instructions for future
reference. The term “power tool” in the safety instructions refers to your mains-
powered (corded) or battery-powered (cordless) power tool.
Safety in the work area
•
Keep the work area clean and well lit. Dark and cluttered work areas increase
the risk of accidents.
•
Do not use power tools in explosive environments, such as in the vicinity of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools produce sparks that can ignite
dust and fumes.
•
Keep children and onlookers at a safe distance when working with a power
tool. You can lose control of the tool if you are distracted.
Electrical safety
•
The mains plug on the power tool must match the mains socket. Never modify
the plug in any way. Never use adapters with earthed power tools. Intact plugs
and matching outlets reduce the risk of electric shock.
•
Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed.
•
Do not expose power tools to rain or moisture. There is a greater risk of electric
shock if water gets into a power tool.
•
Be careful with the power cord. Never use the power cord to carry or pull the
power tool, or to pull out the plug from the mains. Keep the power cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or tangled power
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
•
When you use a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable intended for
outdoor use. Using a cable intended for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
