Safety Warnings
l
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.
l
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
power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
Personal Safety
l
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 injuries.
l
Don’t expose power tools
to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
l
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.
l
If operating a power tool
in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of
an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
l
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.
