equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3.4. Safety instructions
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure
-
to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Safe all warnings and instructions for future reference
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated
(corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
3.4.1. General safety
• Explosion hazard. Never use the power tool in an explosive
atmosphere or in the presence of combustible materials such
as flammable liquids, gases or dust. Exhaust or sparks from the
power tool may ignite atmospheric gases, dust or other combustible
materials. Do not smoke while using or handling the power tool
or fuel cell.
• Use and store the power tool and fuel cells in well ventilated
areas only. Do not inhale gas, exhaust or fumes. Exposure to the
exhaust which contains carbon monoxide may cause nausea, dizziness,
unconsciousness or other per sonal injury.
• Always keep power tools, fuel cells, battery cells and battery
chargers out of the reach of minors and other untrained
persons. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
3.4.2. Work area safety
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as
in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power
tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
3.4.3. Electrical safety
• 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 risk of electric shock.
• 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.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
• 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.
• 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. When operating a power tool
outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W".
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric
shock. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough
to carry the current your tool will draw. An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
• 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.
3.4.4. Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are 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.
