5 GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow all warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save
all warnings and instructions for future reference.
5.1
Work area
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
5.2
Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a tool. Do
not use a tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used whenever conditions require
will reduce personal injuries.
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in.
Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
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.
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.
