Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below,
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
personal 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.
WORK AREA
• Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in an
environment where explosive or corrosive
gases could be present. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite fumes. Avoid areas
where there
is excessive dampness or humidity.
• Keep children, bystanders and visitors away
while operating the power tool. Distractions
can cause
you to lose control.
• Always set up or fix the tool in a
stable position.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
• 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.
• Do not expose power tools to rain
or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
• 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.
• 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.
• Never yank the cord to disconnect if from
socket. Keep the cord away from heat and
sharp edges.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and
use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
• 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.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Tie back long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery, or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
• Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or plugging in power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before
turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is
left attached to a rotating part of the tool may
result in injury.
• Accessories and metal parts can become
very hot.
