GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Contain 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. Be sure the
switch is off before plugging in. Carrying
tools with your finger on the switch or
plugging in 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 personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must
be used for appropriate conditions.
• Before connecting the tool to a power
source, be sure that the voltage supplied
is the same as that specified on the
nameplate of the tool. A power source with
a voltage greater than that specified for the
tool can result in serious injury to the user
– as well as damage to the tool.
Tool use and care
• Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand
or against your body is unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your
application. The correct tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on
or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with
GB
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power
source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the tool.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the tool accidentally.
14
• Store idle tools out of reach of children
and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting
tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely
to bind and are easier to control.
• Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that may affect the
operation of the tool. If damaged, have the
tool serviced before using. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained tools.
• Use only accessories that are
recommended by the manufacturer for
your model. Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool, may become hazardous
when used on another tool.
• Do not alter or misuse tools. These
tools are precision built. Any alteration or
modification not specified is misuse and may
result in a dangerous condition.
Service
• Tool service must be performed only
by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the Maintenance section of this manual.
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow
Maintenance Instructions may create a risk
of electric shock or injury.
Additional safety rules for drills
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the
cutting tools may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and shock the operator.
• Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid
potential overheating.
• When an extension cable is required, you
must ensure that it has the right ampere
rating for your power tool and is in safe
electrical condition.
• Ensure your mains supply voltage is the
same as your tool rating plate voltage.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR DRILLS
• If possible, always use clamps or a vice to
hold your work.
• Always switch off before you put the drill down.
• Ensure that the lighting is adequate.
• Do not put pressure on the drill such that
it slows the motor down. Allow the drill bit
to cut without pressure. You will get better
results and you will be taking better care of
your tool.
• Keep the area free of tripping hazards.
• Only use accessory bits in good condition.
• Before drilling, check that there is sufficient
clearance for the drill bit under the work
piece.
• Do not touch the bit after operation. It will be
very hot.
• Keep your hands away from under the work
piece.
• Never use your hands to remove sawdust,
chips or waste close by the bit.
• Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should
never be left around the work area.
• Support the work properly.
• If you are interrupted when operating the
drill, complete the process and switch off
before looking up.
• Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and
other fixings are properly tightened.
• Do not store materials or equipment above a
machine in such a way that they could fall into it.
• When using the drill, use safety equipment
including safety goggles or shield, earmuffs,
dust mask and protective clothing including
safety gloves.

The tool must be used only for its prescribed
purpose. Any use other than those mentioned
in this Manual will be considered a case of
misuse. The user and not the manufacturer
shall be liable for any damage or injury
resulting from such cases of misuse.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any
changes made to the tool nor for any damage
resulting from such changes.
Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is
not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors.
The following hazards may arise in connection
with the tool's construction and design:
• Damage to the lungs if an effective dust
mask is not worn.
• Damage to hearing if effective earmuffs are
not worn.
Extension cords
• Replace damaged cords immediately. Use
of damaged cords can shock, burn or
electrocute.
• If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with
adequate size conductors should be used
to prevent excessive voltage drop, loss of
power or overheating. The table shows the
correct size to use, depending on cord length
and nameplate amperage rating of tool. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge. Always
use U.L. and CSA listed extension cords.
