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 the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
(2.2) 1. General power Tool Safety warnings
[work area safety]
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite 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 the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
d) Do not use this machine in an enclosed
room.
(2.3) 2. General power Tool Safety warnings
[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 (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the 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.
(2.4) 3) General power Tool Safety warnings
[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 personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection to prevent injury
from sparks and chippings.
Protective equipment such as dust masks,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) 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.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or key left attached to a rotating part of
a power tool may result in personal injury.
e) 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 or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
g) if devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure that these are connected and
