ELECTRICAL SAFETY

(1.14)
This machine is fitted with the correct moulded
plug and mains lead for the designated market.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by a special cord or assembly available
from the manufacturers or its service agent.
For added protection use a residual current
device (R.C.D.) that will interrupt the supply if
the leakage current to earth exceeds 30mA for
30ms. Always check the operation of the residual
current device (R.C.D.) before using the machine.

OUTDOOR USE

(1.15)
WARNING: For your protection if this tool
is to be used outdoors it should not be
exposed to rain, or used in damp locations.
Do not place the tool on damp surfaces.
Use a clean, dry workbench if available. For
added protection use a residual current
device (R.C.D.) that will interrupt the supply
if the leakage current to earth exceeds 30mA
for 30ms. Always check the operation of
the residual current device (R.C.D.) before
using the machine. If an extension cable is
required it must be a suitable type for use
outdoors and so labelled. The manufacturers
instructions should be followed when using
an extension cable.

REFERENCE
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1. General Power Tool Safety Warnings
(2.2)
[Work area safety]
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gasses or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
d) Do not use this machine in an
enclosed room.
2. General Power Tool Safety Warnings
(2.3)
[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 the risk of electric shock.
b) 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.
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 outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
