the length of time exposed to vibration and use anti-vibration gloves. Do not operate the tool with
hands below a normal comfortable temperature, as vibration will have a greater effect. Use the
figures provided in the specification relating to vibration to calculate the duration and frequency
of operating the tool.
Sound and vibration levels in the specification are determined according to international
standards. The figures represent normal use for the tool in normal working conditions. A poorly
maintained, incorrectly assembled, or misused tool, may produce increased levels of noise
and vibration. www.osha.europa.eu provides information on sound and vibration levels in the
workplace that may be useful to domestic users who use tools for long periods of time.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications
provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below 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.
1) 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, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while 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 (grounded) power tools. 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 personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as a dust mask, 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 a
key left attached to a rotating part of the 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 and clothing
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 collection 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.
4) Power tool use and care
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 and/or remove the battery pack,
if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such 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 and accessories. 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 hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Multi-Tool Safety
General safety advice for multi-purpose hand held cordless and corded tools including both
rotating and oscillating types.
WARNING: Contact with electric or gas lines can lead to fire, electric shock and explosions.
Penetrating a water line can result in damage to property and electric shock. Use appropriate
detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area. Always be extremely careful
when making blind and pocket cuts where the exit point of the blade or accessory at the other
side of the material cannot be seen.
WARNING: Asbestos may be in materials and textured coatings in older properties and
should be treated with extreme caution. If you suspect or discover asbestos consult your local
health and safety authority immediately for advice on its removal. It may require the services of
a specialist asbestos removal company.
WARNING: If a cutting accessory makes contact with a 'live' wire, the exposed metal parts
of the power tool may become 'live' and could give the operator an electric shock. Hold the
power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces at all times during use.
WARNING: DO NOT work with damp or wet materials or accessories that require liquid
coolants. Liquids entering the body of the tool is an electrical hazard as well as likely to
destroy the tool.
WARNING: The dust produced from working with some materials can be toxic. Beech, oak,
mahogany and teak natural woods, man-made composite woods and some surface treatments
including paint with lead are toxic. Lead based paint is common in buildings pre 1960. Always
wear suitable respiratory protection for example a respirator face mask. Ideally also use a dust
extraction system or regularly vacuum the work area to prevent the build-up of dust and do a
final vacuum after the work is completed. Most dust is a fire hazard. Overhead work surfaces
have an increased safety risk for dust.
a) Wear protective, cut-proof gloves when changing blades and accessories. Some
blades and accessories can be very sharp. Scraper blades sharpen as they are used. Blades
and accessories shortly after use can be very hot, allow to cool.
b) Keep your workplace clean. Dusts created from different materials including woods and
metals can be highly flammable. Dust from light alloys including magnesium can burn or
explode easily.
c) DO NOT treat the work surface with fluids containing solvents. If such fluids become
warm from scraping, toxic vapours may be produced, or surfaces may catch fire.
WARNING: NEVER fit any blade or accessory with a maximum speed lower than the no
load speed of the power tool.
d) ONLY change accessories and blades or perform maintenance with the tool
disconnected from its power supply, either mains connection or battery. If the tool
features a captive battery in a charged state take extra care not to switch it on accidentally
when changing accessories or blades.
e) ALWAYS use accessories or blades that are approved by the manufacturer or meet
the specification of your power tool, this includes being compatible in size and speed.
DO NOT try to cut material thicker than the capacity stated in the specification.
f) ONLY use an adapter for using different accessories or blades if the adapter is
specifically designed and approved by the manufacturer of your power tool.
g) DO NOT modify accessories or blades so they work with power tools they were not
intended to work with or for uses that they were never designed for.
h) DO NOT use accessories or blades that are damaged, bent, chipped, cracked, heavily
corroded or excessively worn. Such accessories can break apart in use causing injury to
the operator. ALWAYS inspect accessories or blades before use and discard immediately if
not in good condition. NEVER use blades that are worn to a dull edge. ALWAYS use sharp
blades.
i) ALWAYS ensure all accessories or blades are securely attached to the tool before use
and the securing tool is removed prior to use.
j) DO NOT attempt to free a jammed blade or accessory until the power tool has been
disconnected from power.
k) Inspect the workpiece before use to make sure it is in the correct condition for the
fitted accessory or blade. Remove all nails, staples and other embedded objects prior to
starting work.
l) Any freely movable workpieces should be secured with a clamp or vice before
starting work.
m) ALWAYS ensure that the lighting is adequate in the work area. Never remove your
