GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING!

Read all instructions.

 Failure to 

follow all instructions listed below may result in 

electric shock, ire 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 work 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  lammable 

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

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. Unmodiied 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 

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.

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 

inluence  of  drugs,  alcohol  or  medication. 

A moment 

of inattention while operating power tools may result in 

serious personal injury.

b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye 

protection. 

Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-

skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for 

appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Avoid accidental starting.

 Ensure the switch is 

in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools 

with your inger on the switch or plugging in 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.

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 intended could result in a 

hazardous situation.

5) Service

a)  Have  your  power  tool  serviced  by  a  qualiied 

repair person using only identical replacement 
parts. 

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is 

maintained.

 WARNING!

  Read  all  safety  warnings  and  all 

instructions, given in the Operating Instructions.

SPECIFIC SAFETY AND WARNINGS

•  See  “Safety  Instructions”  manual,  supplied  with  this
