GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
ELECTRIC TOOLS
Warning: Read 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 re-
fers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) WORK AREA
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark
areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmosphere,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases,
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children, pets and bystanders away while from
work area. Be aware that the normal noise of the ma-
chine when turned on may make it difficult for you to
hear approaching people.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Electrical 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 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 carry-
ing, 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 exten-
sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suit-
able for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon 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 inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) 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.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the tool on. A wrench or a key that is 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 jewel-
lery. 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 ex-
traction and collection facilities, ensure that these are
connected and properly used. Use of these devices
can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) POWER TOOLS 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 from 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 can not be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other
conditions that may affect the power tools operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in
accordance with these instructions and in the manner
intended for the particular type of power tool, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tools serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tools is maintained.
General Safety Instructions
