GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instruc-
tions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or bat-
tery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
f
dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmos-
f
pheres, 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 oper-
f
ating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
f
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapt-
er plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
f
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 condi-
f
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car-
f
rying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
f
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location
f
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
f
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.
Use personal protective equipment. Always
f
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.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
f
is in the off-position before connecting to power
source, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying
power tools with your finger on the switch or ener-
gizing power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
f
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.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
f
ance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
f
jewelery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelery
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of
f
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
f
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
f
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
f
from the power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
f
dren 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.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
f
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
f
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
f
etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could re-
sult in a hazardous situation.
SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by an authorized
service and use only original spare parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is main-
tained.
