WARNING:
When using electric tools, machines or
equipment, basic safety precautions should
electric shock, and personal injury.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep the work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks, which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool.
Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. 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.
plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
2. 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.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions.
Power tools exposed to water
4. 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.
5. When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of an outdoor cord reduces the risk
of electric shock.
6. If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a ground-fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply.
Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. 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 in
uence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
2. 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.
3. 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.
switch or energising power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
4. 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.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
7. If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
