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 that 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 plugging in
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 these devices can reduce dust
related hazards.
h. Do not let familiarity gained from
frequent use of tools allow you to
become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless
action can cause severe injury within
a fraction of a second.

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 before making
any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
