d.   Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. 

wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in 

personal injury.

e.   Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 

This 

enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f.   Dress properly. Do not wear loose 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.

g.   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.

  4.  POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a.   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.

b.   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.

c.   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.

d.   Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow 

persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the 

power tool.

 Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e.   Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, 

breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools 

operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. 

Many 

accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f.   Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

 Properly maintained cutting tools with 

sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g.   Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these 

instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, 

taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.

 

Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result 

in a hazardous situation.

 5. SERVICE

a.   Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only 

identical replacement parts. 

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool 

is maintained.

Electrical Safety

The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only. Always check that the 

power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate. 240 V AC means your 

tool will operate on alternating current. As little as 10% lower voltage can cause loss 

of power and can result in overheating. All D

E

WALT tools are factory tested; if this 

tool does not operate, check the power supply. Your D

E

WALT tool is double insulated, 

therefore no earth wire is required.
 • 

Young children and the infirm.

 This appliance is not intended for use by 

young children or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be 

supervised to ensure that they do not play with this appliance.

  •

  Replacement of the supply cord. 

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be 

replaced by the manufacturer or an authorised D

E

WALT Service Centre in order to 

avoid a hazard.
