General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING

Read all the safety notes, instructions, illustrations and technical data which 

come with this power tool. Failure to heed the following instructions can lead to 

electric shock, fi re and/or severe injuries.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term „power tool“ in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power 
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 pres-

ence of fl ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which 

may ignite the dust or fumes.

c)  Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distrac-

tions 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. Unmodi-

fi ed 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 unplug-

ging 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 outdoor use reduces the risk of electric 

shock.

f)  If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable or there is the 

likelihood of cutting into the cord, 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 infl u-

ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. 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 protec-

tion used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c)  Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before 

connecting to power source, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power 

tools with your fi nger 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 unexpected situations.

f)  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.

g)  If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection 

facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collec-

tion can reduce dustrelated 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 before making any adjustments, 

changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety meas-

ures 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 condition 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.

h) Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles do 

not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5) Service

a)  Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair person using only 

identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool 

is maintained.
