wArNING: 

For your protection, if this tool  

is to be used outdoors it should not be 
exposed to rain or used in damp locations. 
Do not place the tool on damp surfaces. 
Use a clean, dry workbench if available. For 
added protection use a residual current 
device (R.C.D.) that will interrupt the supply 
if the leakage current to earth exceeds 30mA 
for 30ms. Always check the operation of the 
residual current device (R.C.D.) before using 
the machine. 

If an extension cable is required it must be a 
suitable type for use outdoors and so labelled.
The manufacturer’s instructions should be 
followed when using an extension cable.

SAFETY INSTruCTIONS

(These General Power Tool Safety Instructions 
are as specified in BS EN 60745-1:2009 
& EN 61029-1:2009).

wArNING:

 Read all safety warnings and 

instructions. 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.

1) General Power Tool Safety warnings 
[work area safety]

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. 

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) do not operate power tools in explosive 
atmospheres, such as in the presence of 
flammable liquids, gasses or dust. 

Power 

tools create sparks which may ignite the dust 
or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away 
while operating power tool. 

Distractions 

can cause you to lose control.

2) General Power Tool Safety warnings 
[Electrical Safety]

a) 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 the 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 
conditions. 

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.
