General Safety Rules
WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the
warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded)
power tool or battery operated (cordless) powertool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) Work area
a)
Keep working area clean and well lit. Cluttered and
dark areas invite accidents.
b)
Do
not
operate
atmospheres,
such
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c)
Keep
children
and
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
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
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.
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
safety
equipments:
protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c)
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure 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.
d)
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f)
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery
and 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 properly used. Use of these
devices can reduce dust related hazards.
h)
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

i)
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss
of control can cause personal injury.
4) Power tool use and care
while
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
before
accessories,
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tools operation. lf damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc., in accordance with these instructions and in
the manner intended for the particular type of
power tool, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of
the power tool for operations different from intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
eye
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
