• 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.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
• 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.
• 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.
2.7 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
infl uence 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 mask, 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 fi nger 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.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dustrelated hazards.
