General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instruc-
tions.
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-operat-
ed (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool�
1) 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, gases or dust.
Pow-
er tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c)
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a pow-
er 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.
Unmodified 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 out-
door use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f)
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoida-
ble, 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 influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while oper-
ating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b)
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye pro-
tection.
Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appro-
priate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c)
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off-position before connecting to power source and/or bat-
tery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power
tools with your finger on the switch or energising 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 unex-
pected 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 extrac-
tion and collection facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-re-
lated 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 and/or the
battery pack from the power tool before making any ad-
justments, 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 condi-
tion that may affect the power tool’s operation. If dam-
aged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many acci-
dents 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 ac-
cordance with these instructions, 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.
Special safety instructions for drills
–
Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool.
Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
–
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory may
contact hidden wiring.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live”
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live”
and could give the operator an electric shock.
