Work place safety
a)
Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas
invite accidents.

Do not work with the power tool in areas with a risk of explosion
where flammable liquids, gases or dusts are present.
Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c)
Keep children and other persons away from the power tool while
you are using it.
If you are distracted, you could lose control of the
power tool.
Electrical safety
a)
The connector plug for the power tool must fit in the socket. The
plug must not be modified in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs in combination with power tools with protective earthing.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric
shock.
b)
Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces like pipes, heaters,
stoves and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed or grounded.
c)
Keep power tools away from rain or moisture.
Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not use the cord for improper purposes such as for carrying
the power tool, for hanging it up or for pulling or unplugging
it from the socket. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges
and moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e)
When operating a power tool outdoors, use only extension cords
that are suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.
