If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual cur-
u
rent device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
u
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. Always wear eye protection. Protective
u
equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
u
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 wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench
u
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 bet-
u
ter control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and
u
clothing 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 facil-
u
ities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can re-
duce dust-related hazards.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become com-
u
placent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury
within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The
u
correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was de-
signed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
u
that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if
u
detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing ac-
