General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instruc‑
tions.
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-operat-
ed (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.
Pow‑
er tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c)
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a pow‑
er 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 out‑
door use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f)
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoida‑
ble, 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 oper‑
ating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b)
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye pro‑
tection.
Protective equipment such as dust mask, non‑skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appro‑
priate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c)
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
