General power
tool safety warnings

WARNING!

►

Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and speciﬁcations provided
with this power tool.

Failure to follow all

instructions listed below 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-operated (corded) power tool or battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety

Keep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmos-
pheres, such as in the presence of ﬂammable
liquids, gases or dust.

Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool.

Distractions can

cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

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.

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.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions.

Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

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.

When working outdoors with an electrical
power tool always use extension cords that
are also suitable for use outdoors.

Use of a

cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk
of electric shock.

If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply.

Use of an RCD

re duces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

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 operating a power
tool may result in serious personal injury.

Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear safety goggles.

Protective equipment such

as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or
hearing protection used for appropriate condi-
tions will reduce personal injuries.

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.

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.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.

This enables better control

of the power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away
from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewellery or

long hair can be caught in moving parts.

If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used.
