5. Safety information
General power tool safety warnings
m WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications provided
with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or se-
rious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operat-
ed (cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
a)
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive at-
b)
mospheres, such as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
c)
Keep children and bystanders away while op-
erating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a)
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Nev-
er 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.
b)
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.
c)
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk
of electric shock.
d)
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.
e)
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.
f)
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.
3) Personal safety
a)
Stay alert, watch what you are 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 med-
ication.
A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
b)
Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce per-
sonal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
c)
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.
d)
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
e)
balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in un-
expected situations.
f)
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and 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
g)
dust extraction and collection facilities, en-
sure these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
