• 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.
Personal safety
• 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.
• Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust
masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
• 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.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key 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 jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
• Keep handles dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Slippery handles do not
allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
• 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.
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 was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the
power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow
