that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage
greater than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user,
and damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power
source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
Polarized Plugs (for North America only) To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Cutting tool safety
WARNING. Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch power
point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as
that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage
greater than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user,
and damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power
source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
Use the correct cutting tool
• Ensure the cutting tool is suitable for the job. Do not assume a tool is
suitable without checking the product literature before use
Protect your eyes
• Always wear appropriate eye protection when using cutting tools
• Spectacles are not designed to offer any protection when using this
product; normal lenses are not impact resistant and could shatter
Protect your hearing
• Always wear suitable hearing protection when tool noise exceeds 85dB
Protect your breathing
• Ensure that yourself, and others around you, wear suitable dust masks
Be aware of others around you
• It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that other people in the vicinity
of the work area are not exposed to dangerous noise or dust and are also
provided with suitable protective equipment
Hidden objects
• Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other embedded objects
before cutting
• Do not attempt to cut material that contains embedded objects unless you
know that the cutting tool fitted to your machine is suitable for the job
• Walls may conceal wiring and piping, car body panels may conceal fuel
lines, and long grass may conceal stones and glass. Always check the work
area thoroughly before proceeding
Beware of projected waste
• In some situations, waste material may be projected at speed from the
cutting tool. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that other people in the
work area are protected from the possibility of projected waste
Fitting cutting tools

Beware of heat
• Cutting tools and workpieces may become hot in use. Do not attempt to
change tools until they have been allowed to cool completely
Control dust / swarf
• Do not allow dust or swarf to build up. Sawdust is a fire hazard, and some
metal swarf is explosive
• Be especially careful when cutting wood and metal. Sparks from metal
cutting are a common cause of wood dust fires
• Where possible, use a dust extraction system to ensure a safer working
environment
