ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Waste electrical products should not be
disposed of with household waste. Please
recycle where facilities exist. Check with your
local authority or retailer for recycling advice.
Always wear ear, eye and respiratory
protection.
Do not use before viewing and
understanding the full operating
instructions
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Always wear ear protection where the sound
level exceeds 85dB(A) and limit the time of exposure if
necessary. If sound levels are uncomfortable, even with
ear protection, stop using the tool immediately and check the ear
protection is correctly fitted and provides the correct level of sound
attenuation for the level of sound produced by your tool.
WARNING: User exposure to tool vibration can result in loss of
sense of touch, numbness, tingling and reduced ability to grip.
Long term exposure can lead to a chronic condition. If necessary,
limit the length of time exposed to vibration and use anti-vibration
gloves. Do not operate the tool with hands below a normal
comfortable temperature, as vibration will have a greater effect.
Use the figures provided in the specification relating to vibration to
calculate the duration and frequency of operating the tool.
Sound and vibration levels in the specification are determined
according to EN60745 or similar international standards. The
figures represent normal use for the tool in normal working
conditions. A poorly maintained, incorrectly assembled, or misused
tool, may produce increased levels of noise and vibration.
www.osha.europa.eu provides information on sound and
vibration levels in the workplace that may be useful to domestic
users who use tools for long periods of time.
WARNING: This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced, physical or mental capabilities
or lack of experience or knowledge unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children must be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power
tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas
GB
invite accidents.
b) 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.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

and safety standards.
Instruction warning.
Double insulated for additional
protection.
2) Electrical safety
a) 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.
b) 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.
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 outdoors, use an extension
cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) 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.
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
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,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) 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.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off-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.
