WARNING!
This indicates a hazardous situation, which, if
not followed, could result in serious injury or death.
m
CAUTION!
This indicates a hazardous situation, which, if
not followed, could result in minor or moderate injury.
Work Area Safety
1. Keep work area clean and well lit – Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
2. 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.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool – Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions –

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. 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.
Personal Safety
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the of f-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 energising
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
4. 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.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times – This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts – Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
8. If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used – Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
7. Wear protective hair coverings to contain long hair.
Power Tool Use + Care
1. Do not force the power tool. Use 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.
