SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Warning!

When using mains-powered tools, basic safety precautions, including

the following, should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock,
personal injury and material damage.

Read the whole manual carefully and make sure you know how to switch the tool
off in an emergency, before operating the tool.

Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this machine for 
future reference.

The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only. Always check that the
power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate. 

Note:

The supply of 230V and 240V on Ozito tools are interchangeable for

Australia and New Zealand.

This tool is double insulated in accordance with EN 50144; therefore no 
earth wire is required.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an electrician or 
power tool repairer in order to avoid a hazard.

Note:

Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when

operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury
resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.

Using an Extension Lead

Always use an approved extension lead suitable for the power input of this tool.
Before use, inspect the extension lead for signs of damage, wear and ageing.
Replace the extension lead if damaged or defective. When using an extension lead
on a reel, always unwind the lead completely. Use of an extension lead not suitable
for the power input of the tool or which is damaged or defective may result in a
risk of fire and electric shock.
