Danger! Whenever you use electric tools it is im-
perative to take basic safety precautions in order
to reduce the risk of fi re, electric shock and perso-
nal injury. Essential safety precautions include:
1. Keep your work area tidy!
- An untidy work area invites accidents.
2. Check the working conditions!

- Never use electric tools in damp or wet lo-
cations.
- Make sure there is good lighting.
- Do not use electric tools near fl ammable
liquids or gases.
3. Guard against electric shock!
- Avoid bodily contact with earthed parts (e.g.
pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators).
4. Keep other persons away!
- Do not allow other persons, particularly
children, to touch the tool or cable. Keep all
persons out of your work area.
5. Store tools in a safe place!
- When tools are not in use they should be
stored in a dry, elevated or locked position out
of children's reach.

7. Use the right tool!
- Never use tools or attachments with insuf-
fi cient power for the job in hand.
- Never use tools on jobs for which they were
not intended. For example, do not use a
hand-held circular saw to cut down trees or
lop off branches.
8. Wear suitable work clothes!
- Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as
they may get caught in moving parts.
- Non-slip shoes are recommended when
working outdoors.
- Wear a hair net if you have long hair.
9. Use personal safety equipment!
- Wear safety goggles
- Use a dust mask when working on dusty
jobs
10. Connect up a vacuum extraction system!
- If there are provisions for connecting up a
vacuum extraction system, make sure that
such a system is fi tted and being used cor-
rectly.
11. Do not mis-use the cable!
- Do not carry the tool by its cable or pull on
the cable to remove the plug from the socket-
outlet. Protect the cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges.
12. Secure your workpiece!
- Use clamps or a vise to hold the workpiece
securely. This is safer than using your hand
and will enable you to operate the machine
with both hands.
13. Avoid abnormal working postures!
- Make sure you stand squarely and keep
your balance at all times.
14. Look after your tools!
- Keep your tools sharp and clean for better
and safer performance.
- Follow the instructions for maintenance work
and for changing any attachments.
- Check the plug and cable regularly and, if
damaged, have them replaced by an autho-
rized specialist.
- Check the extension cable regularly and
replace it if damaged.
- Keep handles dry and free from oil and
grease.
15. Always pull out the power plug:
- When the tool is not being used, before
carrying out any maintenance work and when
changing attachments such as blades, bits
and cutters of any kind.
16. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches!

ches are removed from the tool before swit-
