Safety at work
a) Keep your work area clean and
well lit. Clutter or dim work
areas can lead to accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such
as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gasses or
dust. Power tools create sparks,
which may ignite dust or
vapours.
c) Keep children and other people
out of the work area when
using a power tool. Distractions
may cause you to lose control of
the device.
Electrical safety
a) The plug of the electrical tool
must fit into the socket. The
plug may not be modified in
any way. Do not use an adapter
in conjunction with protective-
earth power tools. Unmodified
plugs and the matching outlets
reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid bodily contact with
earthed surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, cookers and
refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or
grounded.
c) Keep the appliance away from
rain or moisture. Water entering
an electrical device increases the
risk of electrical shock.
