Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
u
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-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
Keep work area clean and well lit.
1.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in
2.
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
3.
while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
electrical safety
Power tool plugs must match the
1.
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
2.
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
3.
wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use
4.
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
5.
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
6.
damp location is unavoidable, use
a residual current device (rCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are
1.
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 operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
use personal protective equipment.
2.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting.
3.
ensure the switch is in the off
-position before connecting to 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
4.
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
5.
footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose
6.
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
7.
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use
of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
