Personal Safety - Black & Decker KX2001 Mode D'emploi

ENGLISH

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, 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 dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
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 not turn it on
and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the
power source and/or the
battery pack from the power
tool before making any
adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
