Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
b)
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur-
faces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrig-
erators.
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 condi-
tions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car-
rying, 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 ex-
tension 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 un-
avoidable, 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 personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will re-
duce 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 carry-
ing 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 turn-
ing the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left at-
tached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
e)
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance 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 these
are connected and properly used.
Use of dust col-
lection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4 POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a)
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct pow-
er 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 and/
or battery pack from the power tool before mak-
ing any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools.
Such preventive safety mea-
sures reduce the risk of starting the power tool ac-
cidentally.
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
tool‘s operation. If 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 taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a haz-
ardous situation.
h)
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease.
Slippery handles do not allow for safe han-
dling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5 SERVICE
a)
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified re-
pair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
