Personal safety

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.

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.

Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before

plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch of
plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

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.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This

enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,

clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.

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.

Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to noise can cause

hearing loss.

Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause

personal injury.

5.4

Power tool use and care

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.

Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any

power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
