WARNING! Read all in-
structions. Failure to fol-
low all instructions list-

ed below may result in electric

shock, fire and/or serious injury.
The term “power tool” in all of
the warnings listed below refers
to your mains operated (corded)

power tool or battery operated
(cordless) power tool.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

1) Work area

a) Keep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered and 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, radia-

tors, 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 out-

door use. Use of a cord suitable for out-

door use 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 safety equipment. Always wear eye

protection. Safety equipment such as dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or

hearing protection used for appropriate

conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the

switch is in the off position before plug-

ging in. Carrying power tools with your

finger on the switch or plugging in 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 foot-

ing and balance at all times. This

enables better control of the power tool in

unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-

ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing

and gloves 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

these devices can reduce dust related

hazards.
