WARNING!

 Read all instructions. Failure to follow all 

instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire 
and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the 
warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) 
power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

1) Work area 

a)

Keep working area clean and well lit. Cluttered 

and dark areas invite accidents. 

b)

Do not 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. 

c)

Keep children and bystanders away while 

operating a power tool. 

Distractions can cause 

you to lose control. 

2)

Electrical safety

d)

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. 

e)

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. 

f)

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet 

conditions.

Water entering a power tool will 

increase the risk of electric shock. 

g)

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.

h)

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. 

3)

Personal safety

i) 

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 
medication.

A moment of inattention while 

operating power tools may result in serious 
personal injury. 

j)

Use safety gear: always wear eye protection. 

Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid 
safety shoes, gloves, hard hat, or hearing 
protection used for appropriate conditions will 
reduce personal injuries. 

k)

Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is 

in the off position before plugging in. 

Carrying 

power tools with your finger on the switch or 
plugging in power tools that have the switch on 
invites accidents. 

l) 

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. 

m)

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and 

balance at all times

. This enables better control of 

the power tool in unexpected situations. 

n)

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or 

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves 
away from moving parts. 

Loose clothes, jewellery 

and long hair can be caught in moving parts. 

o)

If devices are provided for the connection of 

dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure 
these are connected and properly used. 

Use of 

these devices can reduce dust related hazards.

p)

Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. 

Loss of control can cause personal injury.

4)

Power tool use and care

q)

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct 
power tool for your application. 

The correct 

power tool will do the job better and safer at the 
rate for which it was designed. 

r)

Do not use the power tool if the switch does not 

turn it on and off. 

Any power tool that cannot be 

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must 
be repaired. 

s)

Disconnect the plug from the power source 

before making any adjustments, changing 
accessories, or storing power tools. 

Such 

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of 
starting the power tool accidentally. 

t)

Store idle power tools out of the reach of 

children and do not allow persons unfamiliar 
with the power tool or these instructions to
