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, 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.
e When operating a power tool out­
doors, use an extension cord suita­
ble for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
f If it is not possible to avoid using
the electrical tool in a damp envi­
ronment, use a residual current cir­
cuit­breaker. The use of a residual
current circuit-breaker reduces the
risk of an electrical 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 influence of drugs, alco­
hol or medication. A moment of inat-
tention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
b Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust
masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is in the off­posi­

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.
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 inju-
ry.
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, jewel-
lery or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
g If devices are provided for the con­
nection of dust extraction and col­
lection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use
of these devices can reduce dust
related hazards.
4 Power tool use and care
a 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.
b Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be con-
trolled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
c Disconnect the plug from the
power source before making any
