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 operat-
ing a power tool. Do not use a power 
tool while you are tired or under the 
influence of drugs, alcohol or medica-
tion.

A moment of inattention while operating 

power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b)  

Use personal protective equipment. 
Always wear eye protection.

Protective 

equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety 
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for 
appropriate conditions will reduce personal in-
juries.

c)  

Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure 
the switch is in the off-position before 
connecting to power source and / or 
battery 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 foot-
ing 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 mov-
ing parts.

Loose clothes, jewellery or long 

hair can be caught in moving parts.

g)

   If devices are provided for the connec-

tion of dust extraction and collection 
facilities, ensure these are connected 
and properly used. 

Use of dust collection 

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 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 un-
trained users.

e)  

Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts, 
breakage of parts and any other con-
dition that may affect the power tool’s 
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, 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

 Have your power tool serviced by a 
qualified repair person using only iden-
