General Safety Rules
Warning! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
•
serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in all the warnings listed below refers to your mains
operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
It is your responsibility to make this safety information available to others that will operate this product. Failure to follow standards and
•
regulations can cause personal injury.
Always install, operate, inspect and maintain this product in accordance with all applicable standards and regulations (local, state,
•
country, federal, etc.). Compliance is your responsibility. Failure to follow standards and regulations can cause personal injury.
Work area safety
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
• 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.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
• Be aware of buried, hidden or other hazards in your work environment. Do not contact or damage cords, conduits, pipes or hoses that
may contain electrical wires, explosive gases or harmful liquids. Electric shock, fire or personal injury may result.

Electrical safety

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 shock.
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.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
•
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.
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.
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.

Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use power tool while tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protec-
•
tion used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
•
plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power
•
tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
•
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
•
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use
•
of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your
•
body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Prevent exposure and breathing of harmful dust and particles created by power tool use.
•
- Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
- Lead from lead based paints,
- Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
- Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
- Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work
in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out micro-
scopic particles.
Stop using any tool if discomfort, tingling feeling or pain occurs. Vibration, repetitive motions or uncomfortable positions may be harmful to
•
your hands and arms. Power tools can vibrate in use. Seek medical advice before resuming use.
The vibration emission during actual use of power tool can differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is
•
used. Take appropriate safety measure to protect the operator, based on an estimation of exposure during actual usage.
Avoid contact with moving parts of tool. Tool and/or accessories may briefly continue their motion after power is removed creating a risk of
•
entanglement or other personal injury.
Power tool use and care
• 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 is designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on or off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled by the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the power tool. Such
•
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
