3. Guard against electric shock - Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
(e.g. pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerators)
4. Keep other persons away - Do not let persons, especially children, not involved in the
work touch the tool or the extension cord and keep them away from the work area
5. Store idle tools - When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry locked-up place, out
of reach of children
6. Do not force the tool - It will perform the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was intended
7. Use the right tool - Do not force small tools to do the job of a heavy duty tool. Do not
use tools for purposes not intended; for example do not use circular saws to cut tree
limbs or logs
8. Dress appropriately
- Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, which can be caught in moving parts
- Suitable safety footwear is recommended when working outdoors.
- Wear protective covering to contain long hair
9. Use protective equipment
-Use safety glasses
-Use face or dust mask if working operations create dust
WARNING: Not using protective equipment or appropriate clothing can cause personal
injury or increase the severity of an injury.
10. Connect dust extraction equipment - If the tool is provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collecting equipment, ensure these are connected and properly used
11. Do not abuse the power cable - Never yank the power cable to disconnect it from
the
socket. Keep the power cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Damaged or
entangled power cables increase the risk of electric shock
12. Secure work - Where possible use clamps or a vice to hold the work. It is safer than
using your hand
13. Do not overreach - Keep proper footing and balance at all times
14. Maintain tools with care
- Keep cutting tools sharp and clean makes the tool easier to control and less likely to
bind or lock in the workpiece
- Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories
- Inspect tool power cables periodically and if damaged have them repaired by an
authorized service facility
- Inspect extension cables periodically and replace if damaged
- Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease
WARNING: Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
15. Disconnect tools - When not in use, before servicing and when changing accessories
such as blades, bits and cutters, disconnect tools from the power supply
WARNING: The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the manufacturer
may result in a risk of injury to persons.
16. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches - Form the habit of checking to see that keys
and adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before switching it on
17. Avoid unintentional starting - Ensure switch is in "off' position when connecting to a
mains socket or inserting a battery pack, or when picking up or carrying the tool
WARNING: Unintended starting of a tool can cause major injuries.
18. Use outdoor extension leads - When the tool is used outdoors, use only extension
cords intended for outdoor use and so marked. Use of an extension cable suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock
19. Stay alert
- Watch what you are doing, use common sense and do not operate the tool when you
are tired
- Do not use a power tool while you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication
WARNING: A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
20. Check damaged parts
- Before further use of tool, it should be carefully checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform its intended function
- Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting and any other conditions that may affect its operation
- A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an
authorized service centre unless otherwise indicated in this instruction manual
- Have defective switches replaced by an authorized service centre
WARNING: Do not use the tool if the on/off switch does not turn it on and off. The switch
must be repaired before the tool is used.
21. Have your tool repaired by a qualified person - This electric tool complies with the
relevant safety rules. Repairs should only be carried out by qualified persons, otherwise
this may result in considerable danger to the user
WARNING: When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
WARNING: If the power cable is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an
authorised service centre.
22. Power tool mains plugs must match the mains socket - Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching sockets will reduce risk of electric shock
23. If operating a power tool outside use a residual current device (RCD) - Use of an
RCD reduces the risk of electric shock
NOTE: The term "residual current device (RCD)" may be replaced by the term "ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI)" or "earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)".
WARNING: When used in Australia or New Zealand, it is recommended that this tool is
ALWAYS supplied via Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30mA
or less.
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.

Bench Grinder Safety

• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment. When using a grinder, safety
goggles, ear defenders and dust masks should be worn
• Always use grinding wheels of the correct specification for the grinder
• Prior to use, check grinding wheels for damage. Do not use flawed, cracked or grinding
wheels with any kind of damage. Damaged wheels can spontaneously shatter causing
a hazard
• If you suspect that a wheel has degraded in storage DO NOT USE
• Ensure that grinding wheels are fitted correctly and securely prior to use. Tighten
grinding wheel lock nuts, secure bolts and check all clamps and guards
• Ensure guards are in place and working correctly prior to use
• After fitting a new grinding wheel, stand to one side of the grinder and switch 'ON'.
Let the grinder operate at full speed for approximately one minute to allow undetected
flaws or cracks to become apparent
• Keep hands clear of the grinding wheels at all times; do not reach behind or beneath
the grinding wheels
• DO NOT attempt to use this grinding tool for cutting tasks
Hobby Tool Safety
a) This power tool is intended to function as a grinder, sander, wire brush, polisher,
carving or cut-off tool. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
b) Do not use accessories which are not specifically designed and recommended by
the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your power tool,
it does not assure safe operation.
c) The rated speed of the grinding accessories must be at least equal to the
maximum speed marked on the power tool. Grinding accessories running faster than
their rated speed can break and fly apart.
d) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be within the
capacity rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be
adequately controlled.
e) The arbour size of wheels, sanding drums or any other accessory must properly
fit the spindle or collet of the power tool. Accessories that do not match the
mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and
may cause loss of control.
f) Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding drums, cutters or other accessories must be
fully inserted into the collet or chuck. If the mandrel is insufficiently held and/or the
overhang of the wheel is too long, the mounted wheel may become loose and be
ejected at high velocity.
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspect the accessory such as
abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, sanding drum for cracks, tear or excess
wear, wire brush for loose or cracked wires. If power tool or accessory is
dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting
and installing an accessory, position yourself and bystanders away from the
plane of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no-load
speed for one minute. Damaged accessories will normally break apart during this test
time.
h) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use face
shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing
protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or
workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris
generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of
filtrating particles generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Anyone entering the work
area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a
broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
j) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
k) Always hold the tool firmly in your hand(s) during the start-up. The reaction torque
of the motor, as it accelerates to full speed, can cause the tool to twist.
l) Use clamps to support workpiece whenever practical. Never hold a small
workpiece in one hand and the tool in the other hand while in use. Clamping a
small workpiece allows you to use your hand(s) to control the tool. Round material such
as dowel rods, pipes or tubing have a tendency to roll while being cut, and may cause
the bit to bind or jump toward you.
m) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose control, the cord may
be cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning accessory.
