17. Stay alert.

 Watch what you are doing. Use common 

sense. Do not operate a power tool when you are tired.

18. Check for damaged parts.

 Before using a tool, check 

that there are no damaged parts. If a part is slightly 

damaged, carefully determine if it will operate properly 

and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of 

moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, 

proper mounting and any other conditions that may affect 

the operation of the tool. A part that is damaged should 

be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised service 

facility, unless otherwise indicated in this Instruction 

Manual.Defective switches must be replaced by an 

authorised service facility. Do not use a tool if the switch 

does not turn the tool on and off correctly.

19. Guard against electric shock. 

Prevent body contact 

with grounded objects such as water pipes, radiators, 

cookers and refrigerator enclosures.

20. Use only approved parts. 

When servicing, use only 

identical replacement parts. Use an authorised service 

facility to fit replacement parts.

Additional safety rules for dust collectors

When using the dust collection system, follow basic safety 

precautions including the following.

• 

Do not vacuum, or use this Dust collection system 

near flammable or combustible liquids, gases, gasoline 

or other fules, lighter fluid, cleaners, oil-based paints, 

natural gas, hydrogen, or explosive dusts like coal dust, 

magnesium dust, grain dust, or gun powder.

• 

Do not vacuum anything that is burning or smoking, such 

as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

• 

To avoid health hazards from vapors or dust, do not 

vacuum toxic materials.

•

• 

Put unit on a stable surface.

•

• 

To avoid injury from accidental starting, unplug power cord 

before changing or cleaning filter/dust bag or chip bag.

• 

Do not use without filter/dust bag and/or chip bag in place.

• 

Turn off controls before unplugging.

Unpacking

Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely 

that your GMC Power Tool is faulty or that a part is missing. 

If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the 

parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified. 

Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.
