General Safety Warnings

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. 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.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a powered tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
a powered tool. Do not use a powered tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating a powered tool 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 reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position when not
operating the tool and make use of other safety features which prevent unintentional
starting
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the powered tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal
injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry 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.
WARNING: User exposure to tool vibration can result in loss of sense of touch, numbness,
tingling and reduced ability to grip. Long term exposure can lead to a chronic condition.
If necessary limit the length of time exposed to vibration. Use the figures provided in the
specification relating to vibration if provided to calculate the duration and frequency of
operating the tool. The 2002/44/EC directive relating to vibration in the workplace may
provide useful information even for domestic use of tools. In the first instance of feeling
uncomfortable due to vibration STOP using the tool immediately.
WARNING: Always wear ear protection where the sound level exceeds 85dB(A) and limit the
time of exposure if necessary. If sound levels are uncomfortable even with ear protection stop
using the tool immediately and check the ear protection is correctly fitted and provides the
right level of sound attenuation for the level of sound produced by your tool.
3) Tool use and care
a) Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. If
damaged, have the tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained tools.
b) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
c) Use the tool's 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 tool for operations different from those intended could result
in a hazardous situation.
4) Service
a) Have your tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the tool is maintained.
Internal Combustion Safety
Dangerous environment
• Do not use petrol tools in damp or wet conditions, or expose them to rain. Provide
adequate surrounding work space and keep area well lit.
2
• Do not use petrol tools where there is a risk of explosion or fire from combustible
material, flammable liquids, flammable gases, or dust of an explosive nature
Switch off
• Ensure that the engine has stopped before attaching any accessories to the tool. If the
tool stops unexpectedly ensure that the power is switched off and the engine is not
running before attempting to check the tool
Running-in the engine
• New tools should be used at moderate speed
• Do not maintain high engine speed until the engine is completely run-in
• The engine will not be capable of developing maximum power until the end of the
running-in period
• When first using the tool, periodically stop and check that all nuts and screws are
securely fastened and tighten them as necessary
• Do not use fuels containing methanol or ethanol, as these may cause internal damage
to the fuel tank and fuel lines
