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

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 presence of 

flammable 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. 

Distractions 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. 

Unmodified 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 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.

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, 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 influence 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 protection 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 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 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 collection can reduce dust-

related hazards.

h)    Do not let familiarity gained from frequent 

use of tools allow you to become complacent 

and ignore tool safety principles.

 A careless 

action can cause severe injury within a fraction of 

a second. 

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
