1. Work area safety

(a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
(b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of

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.

conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.

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) Always use personal protective equipment.
Personal protective equipment such as eye
protection, dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat and/or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.

shock, fire and/or serious injury.
(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 energizing 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,
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 connec-
tion 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.
