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.
Note: The term "residual current device (RCD" may be replaced by the term "ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)" or earth leakage breaker (ELCB)".
Personal Safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired or
under 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 shoes, hard-hat, or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is on the off position
before connecting a power tool to a 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.

Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep 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 that these are connected and used properly. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power Tool Use and Care

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the best job better and safer at the rate
for which it was designed.

Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on off. Any power
tool, which cannot be controlled by the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjustment, changing accessories, or storing
the power tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
