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, pull­
ing 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 elec­
tric shock.
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 influ­
ence of drugs, alcohol or medi­
cation. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b Use personal protective equip­
ment. Always wear eye protec­
tion. Protective equipment such

as dust masks, non­skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing pro­
tection used for appropriate con­
ditions will reduce personal inju­
ries.
c Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is in the
off­position before connecting
to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with
your­finger­on­the­switch­or­ener­
gising power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
d 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 per­
sonal injury.
e Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situa­
tions.
f 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.
g If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction
and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and prop­
erly used. Use of these devices
can reduce dust related hazards.
h Do not assume a false sense
of security and do not overstep
the safety rules for power tools,
even if you are familiar with the
power tool after many uses.
