refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool).
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well
lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite ac-
cidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as
in the presence of fl ammable
Iiquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power
tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
2) 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. Unmodi-
fi ed 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 re-
frigerators. 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, pull-
ing 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 RCD (Residual Current
Device) protected supply with
a rated leakage current of not
more than 30 mA. Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) 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 infl u-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medi-
cation. A moment of inattention white
operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equip-
ment. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection used for appro-
priate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure 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
fi nger on the switch or energising pow-
er tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or
wrench before turning the pow-
er tool on. A wrench or a key left at-
tached to a rotating part of the power
