- Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
- The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains operated
(corded) power tools or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
- Keep work area clean and well lit. cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
- Don't 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.
- Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRIC SAFETY
- Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Don't use any adaptor 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 pipe,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
- Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
- Don't 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 increased the risk of
electric shock.
- When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable
for outdoor use. Using a cord suitable for outdoor use will reduce 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.
- Use of power supply via a RCD with a rated residual current of 30mA
or less is always recommended.
